My Yiddishe Momme - Anne Shelton/Ambrose & His Orchestra[00:00:00]
Written by:Jack Yellen[00:00:00]
Of things I should be thankful[00:00:30]
For I've had a goodly share[00:00:32]
And as I sit here in the comfort of my cosy chair[00:00:36]
My fancy takes me to a humble eastside tenement[00:00:42]
Three flights up in the rear to[00:00:48]
Where my childhood days were spent[00:00:50]
It wasn't much like paradise but 'mid the dirt and all[00:00:56]
There sat the sweetest angel one that I fondly call[00:01:02]
My yiddishe momme I need her more then ever now[00:01:13]
My yiddishe momme I'd like to kiss that wrinkled brow[00:01:22]
I long to hold her hands[00:01:30]
Once more as in days gone by[00:01:33]
And ask her to forgive me for things[00:01:38]
I did that made her cry[00:01:42]
How few were her pleasures[00:01:46]
She never cared for fashion's styles[00:01:50]
Her jewels and her treasures[00:01:54]
She found them in her baby's smiles[00:01:58]
Oh I know that I owe what I am today[00:02:03]
To that dear little lady so old and gray[00:02:08]
To that wonderful yiddishe momme of mine[00:02:12]
How few were her pleasures[00:02:50]
She never cared for fashion's styles[00:02:54]
Her jewels and her treasures[00:02:59]
She found them in her baby's smiles[00:03:03]
Oh I know that I owe what I am today[00:03:07]
To that dear little lady so old and so gray[00:03:17]
To that wonderful yiddishe momme mo of my mine[00:03:27]
