Marty's Mam

(album: The Album After The Last One - 2012)

Marty's Mam forever smiling
She would always grin
Every time we called around
To see if Marty's in

Marty's Mam would answer the door
And with a smiling face
We remember Marty's Mam
The world was a better place

Seems like only yesterday
Marty turned to me to say
What could I do
If me Mam ever passed away?

On the night Marty's Mam died
In a mess, as you can guess
Marty's in a mess
But what can we do?

Marty's mortified
To get him through
We don't have a clue
Just what can we do? Marty!

Ya may be glum, ya may be down
Like I always am
But you'll be fine with a bottle of wine
And a word with Marty's Mam

Feeling blue not long ago
I gave Marty a call
And once I spoke with Marty's Mam
I didn't feel blue at all

Never a moan and never a groan
Never melancholy
Forever and ever
In Marty's memory

On the night Marty's Mam died
In a mess, as you can guess
Marty's in a mess
But what can we do?

Marty's mortified
To get him through
We don't have a clue
Just what can we do?

Seems like only yesterday
Marty turned to me to say
What could I do
If she ever passed away?

On the night Marty's Mam died
In a mess, as you can guess
Marty's in a mess
But what can we do?

Marty's mortified
To get him through
We don't have a clue
Just what can we do?

On the night Marty's Mam died
Ma-a-arty-y-y!
Marty's mortified
Ma-a-arty-y-y!

Marty
What can we do?
What can we do?
Marty
What can we do?
