(Mother's day 1944)
Wanna know a secret ya won't have to keep to yourself?
Wanna know whose picture is on our favorite shelf?
OUR MOM
Wanna know who we love and who's our best gal?
Wanna know who we say is always our best pal?
OUR MOM
And do you know who has always shared our fears?
And fussed and fretted over us through our growing years?
OUR MOM
Where's our constant source of sympathy and the first love we ever knew?
Encouragement, pats on the back, our family Doctor too -
OUR MOM
Who do we appreciate most on this very special day?
And say to her: "God bless you in a very special way".
OUR MOM
Where else would you find the fond love that lights her face and eyes?
Or the warmth and admiration when some ambition you realize?
OUR MOM
Who will always love and guide you, in every crisis is cool and calm?
Who is all these and many more? That's right!!!
That's right, it's OUR MOM
