It was not that long ago it first occurred to me That my mother was a person in her own right Now I realize how very lucky I have been And there, but for the grace of God, go I Mother dear, she can see inside Mother dear, and I've nowhere to hide Mother dear, did I spoil your plans? Mother dear, I do the best I can When I was a teenager I really did believe That my parents had adopted me And the way I carried on they must have thought They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity I'd like to say I'm sorry but my Mother dear, she already knows Mother dear, she'll never let me go Mother dear, kept me warm and safe Mother dear, I'll never lose my faith in mother dear If I ever get arrested by the C.I.A. Because they take me for a foreign spy They won't need no lie-detector, all they'll have to do Is make me look into my mother's eyes Mother dear, she can see inside Mother dear, and I've nowhere to hide Mother dear, kept me warm and safe Mother dear, I'll never lose my faith in mother dear Mother dear, did I spoil your plans? Mother dear, I do the best I can
