Ally bally, ally bally bee Sittin' on your mammy's knee Every day's a Monday Cryin' in my cornflakes There's an empty chair where you once were You used to fix my clothes and cut my hair And I would sit on your knee While you sang me "Ally Bally" There's a quiet in the house now you're not here And daddy doesn't know I hide his beer And I've been sittin' at the window Waitin' for you to come home Your mammy doesn't live here anymore She said she loves you, but her heart is on the floor Oh, your mammy doesn't live here anymore She said she loves you, but she's tired of slammin' doors Wipe away my wet eyes I couldn't sleep 'til midnight And I got in another fight today Tryna make the anger go away February is colder Without you to hold us Daddy's got a tear line on his cheek He's listenin' to "Fast Car" on repeat And I've been sittin' at the window Waitin' for you to come home Your mammy doesn't live here anymore She said she loves you, but her heart is on the floor Oh, your mammy doesn't live here anymore She said she loves you, but she's tired of slammin' doors And for all the times you held me, I want more ♪ And for all the times you held me, I want more
