Mother And Jack

Lala, I got a letter in this town

They're going to pull this old house down

They're going to pull this sad house down

Mother and Jack, they went to see the Emperor

Mother and Jack, they went to see the Emperor

They got no answer, they got no answer

Said, he would think, ah, over his drink, ah

About this question on this house of yours

Don't take our house, away from us

Don't take our house, away from us

He made Jack's poor hair turn gray

He made Jack's poor hair turn gray

I got a letter in this town

They're going to pull this old house down

They're going to see this sad house down

Mother and Jack, they went to see the Emperor

Mother and Jack, they went to see the Emperor

They got no answer, they got no answer
