There are people
Who are sit'n on the side
They had to sit
And watch
It's gonna be a
Fine day
I'm going out/ We are all
To play
Fotch dat dough fum da kitchin shed
Putt on de oven putt it on de led
Rake de coals out hot an red
Mammys gonna make some short bread
Mammy's little baby loves short'n Mammy's little baby loves bread
Mammy's little baby go over dare
Mammy's little baby go to da mastas bed
The Mastas Bed!
It's a trick
Of the language
The things we're
Forced to say
It's a trick
of the language
and you're the
Joke of the day
Fotch ...
Mammy's little....
Good people are
Like puppets
They had to sit
And watch
Good people are
Like puppets
And the pain that
Goes through their hearts
This song tries to show how some where hurt by simply being present.
