Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]A m[A]oth[D]er went out on a part[G]y[D]
She left at home her [A]baby son
He cried and [D]begged [G]her not to [D]leave him
But she would not give [A]up her [D]fun.

[Verse 2]
She kissed his [D]cheek
[A]and tried to [D]soothe him
But [A]would not [D]heed his child[E]ish [A]plea
She heard him [D]call as [G]she
was leav[D]in'
"Please mommy,
please stay [A]home with [D]me."

[Verse 3]
[D]The mother joined [G]the mer[D]rymakers
And [A]soon was [D]lost in trifling [A]joy
The mellow [D]tunes [G]and flitting [D]shadows
Made her forget [A]her baby [D]boy.

[Verse 4]
She danced and [D]laughed and
did some drinkin'
The world for her was full [A]of glee
But now [D]and then these [G]words
would [D]haunt her
"Please mommy,
please stay home with me."
[A]

[Verse 5]
[D]
She left the party [G]feeling [D]dizzy
The smell of drinking [A]on her breath
She hurried [D]home [G]to find her [D]baby
In raging pain [A]and nearing [D]death.

[Verse 6]
The doctor [D]came and
[A]looked on [D]sadly
The case was hopeless, [A]he could see
The baby [D]died,
these [G]words [D]re peating
"Please mommy,
please stay home [A]with [D]me."

[Verse 7]
The mother [D]now, [G]her life would [D]forfeit
To hear her [E]baby's [D]voi[A]ce again
She grieved to [D]think she [G]rudely [D]left him
To satisfy her [A]wicked [D]vain.

[Verse 8]
Now [D]mothers don't [A]neglect [D]your duty
This story should a lesson [A]be
Do not [D]ig nore your
[G]baby's [D]pleading
"Please mommy,
please stay home [A]with [D]me."
