Listen well while i tell you a story Of a boy and girl in the spring As the first flower burst into glory And i heard every bird start to sing Papa he loves mama Mama she loves papa Papa he loves mama Mama she loves papa In a church far away from the city On a morning in may they were wed And the bride's starry eyes looked sop pretty That the world looking on smiled an said Papa he loves mama Mama she loves papa Papa he loves mama Mama she loves papa Just a year from the day they were married Came a gift from the girl to the boy Looking pround as a queen as she carried Such a wonderfull bandle of joy Papa he loves mama Mama she loves papa Papa he loves mama Mama she loves papa
