[Verse 1]
[D]A m[G]oth[D]er [G]went out on a party[C].[G]
She [D]left at [G]home her baby [D]son.
He cried and [G]begged her [C]not to [G]leave him,
But she would [D]not [G]give [D]up her fun[G].
She kissed [D]his [G]cheek [D]an
[G]d t[C]ried t[D]o s[G]oothe him,
But would not heed his childish [D]plea.
She heard him [G]call as [C]she was [G]leaving,
Please, Mommy,
please stay [D]home with [G]me.
Mother Joy, the [C]merry [G]-maker[D]s,
[G]And soon was lost in trifling [D]joy,
The mellow [G]tunes and
[C]flitting [G]shadows
[D]made [G]her forget her[D] baby boy[G].
She danced and laughed
[D]an [G]d did[C] some drinking[G].
The world for her was full of [D]glee.
But now and [G]then,
these [C]words would [G]haunt her
[D]Please, [G]Mommy, please,
stay [D]home with [G]me[D][G]
She left the party [C]feelin' [G]dizzy
The smell of dreams was on her [D]breath
She hurried [G]home to [C]find her [G]baby
In raging pain [D]and nearing [G]death
The doctor came and [C]looked on [G]sadly
The case was hopeless, he could [D]see
The baby [G]died, these [C]words repeat
[G]Ple[D]ase mom[G]my,
[D]ple[G]ase sta[D]y home with me[G]
A mother now, [D]her [C]life would for[G]feit
To hear [D]her [G]baby's voice [D]again
She grieved her [G]thing, she [C]rudely [G]left him
To satisfy [D]her wish's [G]vain
Now mothers don't neglect [C]your [G]duty
This story should a lesson [D]be
Do not ig[G]nore your [C]baby's [G]pleading
Please mommy,
please [D]stay home with [G]me
