Lyrics: Luciano Pavarotti. Pavarotti Forever. Mamma.

Mama, when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama, will a prince come and take me away?

When I said these things, I believed in kings
Then I didn't know love could hurt me so
Slowly she replied, tears had filled her eyes
Baby, not so fast, let your young life last

Mama, when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama, will a prince come and take me away?

I sang to her in fun, my teens had just began
My age was not the same, still we played this game
Her eyes were filled with pride, slowly she replied
Soon enough you'll be a very pretty bride

Mama, when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama, will the hurt go away deep inside

When I sang this song, my poor world had gone along
All my early dreams has turned to crystal streams
My love, it last and more tears have past
And left me just one thing, a tender voice that sing

Mama, when my dollies have babies
And I am a big lady
Mama
