Pal Of My Cradle Days

Lyr/Chords Req: Pal Of My Cradle Days

Also, there's the old Al Jolson hit "MY MAMMY," as well as "IN A SHANTY IN OLD SHANTY TOWN" and Dolly Parton's autobiographical "COAT OF MANY COLORS" and Paul McCartney's tribute to his own dear departed mother, "LET IT BE."

The second verse (chorus?) to M-O-T-H-E-R goes:
"M" is for the mercy she possesses,
"O" means that I owe her all I own.
"T" is for her tender, sweet caresses,
"H" is for those hands that made a home.
"E's" for everything she did to help me,
"R" means real and regular was she.
Put them all together, they spell "Mother,"
A name that means the world to me.
