Momma, hey momma
Come looking for me
I'm here in the meadow
By the red maple tree
Momma, hey momma
Look sharp
Here I be
Hey, hey momma, look sharp
Them soldiers they fired
Oh ma did we run
But when we turned around
The battle begun
Then I went under
Oh ma, am I done
Hey, hey momma, look sharp
My eyes are wide open
My face to the sky
Is that you, I'm hearing
In the tall grass near by
Ah momma come find me
Before I do die
Hey, hey momma, look sharp
I'll close your eyes, my Billy
Those eyes that can not see
And I'll bury you, my Billy
Beneath the maple tree
And never again
Will you whisper to me
Hey, hey, oh momma, look sharp
Mama look sharp Momma, hey momma Come looking for me I'm here in the meadow By the red maple tree Momma, hey momma Look sharp Here I be Hey, hey momma, look sharp Them soldiers they fired Oh ma did we run But when we turned around The battle begun Then I went under Oh ma, am I done Hey, hey momma, look sharp My eyes are wide open My face to the sky Is that you, I'm hearing In the tall grass near by Ah momma come find me Before I do die Hey, hey momma, look sharp I'll close your eyes, my Billy Those eyes that can not see And I'll bury you, my Billy Beneath the maple tree And never again Will you whisper to me Hey, hey, oh momma, look sharp Explain Request ×
