MOMMY PLEASE STAY HOME WITH ME

E A mother went out A on a part-{E} y 
She left at home her baby B7 son 
He cried E and begged her A not to leave E him 
But she would not give B7 up her E fun. 
 
E She kissed his cheek and A tried to soothe E him 
But would not heed his childish B7 plea 
She heard him E call as A she was leav-{E} in' 
"Please mommy please stay B7  home with E me." 
 
The mother joined the merrymakers 
And soon was lost in trifling joy 
The mellow tunes and flitting shadows 
Made her forget her baby boy. 
 
She danced and laughed and did some drinkin' 
The world for her was full of glee 
But now and then these words would haunt her 
"Please mommy please stay home with me." 
 
She left the party feeling dizzy 
The smell of drinking on her breath 
She hurried home to find her baby 
In raging pain and nearing death. 
 
The doctor came and looked on sadly 
The case was hopeless, he could see 
The baby died, these words repeating 
"Please mommy please stay home with me." 
 
The mother now, her life would forfeit 
To hear her baby's voice again 
She grieved to think she rudely left him 
To satisfy her wicked vein. 
 
Now mothers don't neglect your duty 
This story should a lesson be 
Do not ignore your baby's pleading 
"Please mommy please stay home with me."
