(3999)
Taught him how to read
Taught him how to eat properly
Father combed his hair
Mother said his prayers at night
She said God don't take him away
She said God don't take him away
He's my little boy little boy
Mother's joy, mother's joy
The boy becomes a man
Everything needed is close at hand
Goes to college
Becomes a hard working lad
He goes out a night
To watch the sky
Feels so glad that he's alive
He's a mother's joy, mother's joy
Little boy, little boy, mother's joy, mother's joy
One day last September
He saw her there she was old and gray
Deep lines arrayed
Small words conveyed
As tears gave way
She said boy I loved you
She said boy I loved you
You're my little boy, little boy, little boy, Little boy
Mother's joy mother's joy….
