No     affection were the words that stuck on my mind
                                           
When she walked out on me for the very last time
                                          
Oh mamma sweet mamma can you tell me what to say
                                             
I don't know what I've done to be treated this way
                                             
In a cold dirty room that's where I found myself
                                            
With a bottle of wine and some pills off the shelf
                                           
Oh mamma sweet mamma can you tell me what to say
                                              
I don't know what I've done and I'm feeling so ashamed

                

                                  
Then an angel appeared she was just 17
                                      
In a dirty old gown with a conscious so clean
                                          
Oh mamma sweet mamma can you tell me what to say
                                            
She's brought back the life that I once threw away
