I put my little girl to bed with teardrops in her eyes All day I've tried to comfort her and louder were her cries I left her there to say her prayers and stepped outside the door The prayer I heard was one I knew I'd never heard before Please have my mommy ask my daddy to come home Sometimes I'll cry and get my way and mommy's so alone She told me once that when I'm right I never should give in So if at first I don't succeed I'll cry cry again [ steel ] I know our little girl is right and we're both in the wrong And so I've called you up tonight to ask you please come home I can't go on or stand for long the way she cries today And I can't go to sleep at night because I heard her pray Please have my mommy...
