Lyrics Mama, I'll Sing One Song for You - Dr. Hook
(Shel
Silverstein)
Well
I've
sung
my
songs
on
dusty
roads
and
dirty
city
sidewalks
To
them
sweatin'
hard
eyed
brakemen,
in
the
rail
yards
I
rolled
through
I've
sung
in
blue
wall
papered
rooms
to
girls
I
played
at
lovin'
Now
Mama...
I'm
gonna
sing
one
song
for
you
Mama
let
me
tell
you
that
I've
never
lost
the
mem'ry
Of
the
tender
things
you
told
me,
and
the
gentle
things
you'd
do
And
though
I've
grown
away
and
other
arms
reach
out
to
hold
me
Mama...
I'll
sing
one
song
for
you
You
say
you'd
like
to
have
me
here
to
help
you
through
the
winter
But
you
say
it
with
a
wistful
smile
like
you
already
knew
That
your
boy's
no
good
at
stayin'
still
that's
words
that
need
sayin'
And
Mama...
I'll
sing
one
song
for
you
And
tomorrow
I'll
be
movin'
out
on
them
dusty
country
back
roads
Some
sweatin'
hard
eyed
brakeman
may
hear
a
tune
or
two
And
the
girl
in
the
blue
wall
papered
room
she'll
ask
where
I
been
hidin'
And
I'll
tell
'em
I
stopped
and
sang
one
song
for
you
Mama
let
me
tell
you
that
I've
never
lost
the
mem'ry
Of
the
tender
things
you
told
me,
and
the
gentle
things
you'd
do
And
though
I've
grown
away
and
other
arms
reach
out
to
hold
me
Mama...
I'll
sing
one
song
for
you
