There lives a little boy in the house next door to me And as usual his mommy was gone So he came over this morning and sat down next to me And asked why does mommy leave me alone. But he'll find out someday why his mommy stays away And why a woman needs arms to hold her tight And that she would stay at home and not leave him all alone If his daddy didn't stay away at night. [Chorus] He said I wish I had a mommy like you just like you To hold me in her arms the way you do When I lay me down to sleep I pray the Lord my soul to keep And I ask for a mommy like you. Though a tear fell from his eye he was trying not to cry I said don't worry everything will be all right So you just wait and see and I held him close to me Just like I held his daddy last night. [Chorus] And I ask for a mommy like you...
