I once had a doll
That was all dressed in white
I called her my baby
And I'd hold her tight Her eyes were so blue
And her cheeks were so red
But I loved her most of all
Each time she said... Mama, mama, mama, mama
One little word she knew
Mama, mama, mama, mama
To me it meant, I love you My dolly was waiting
When I'd want to play
And I always knew
What she wanted each day I'd wash her and feed her
And put her to bed
But I'd never leave her
Until she said... Mama, mama, mama, mama
One little word she knew
Mama, mama, mama, mama
To me it meant, I love you Then came the time
I remember the day
I wrapped her in paper
And put her away Now I've got a secret
Sometimes when I'm blue
I still get a thrill again
Listening to... Mama, mama, mama, mama
One little word she knew
Mama, mama, mama, mama
To me it meant, I love you
