Mamma, you're one in a million,

Mamma, you're one of a kind;

Sent from above, heart filled with love;

No finer Mamma we'd find.

 

Mamma, you could have been famous

You might have been anything at all

But we have been blessed, 'cause we got the best--

Mamma, you answered the call.

 

When God, the Lord above, creates a new soul

He carries it to earth for a heart to hold;

We know that we've received the love that God had meant;

He always picks the best that He can get;

So Mamma, don't forget, you're HEAVEN-SENT.

 

Mamma, you could have decided

To model and star on the screen;

Pity your fans, we changed your plans;

You made a quite different scene.

 

Mamma, you could have gone travelling--

Lisbon, Vienna, or Rome;

Seen the world 'round, but you settled down;

You chose to give us a home.
