作曲：

It was not that long ago it first occurred to me

That my mother was a person in her own right

Now I realize how very lucky I have been

And there but for the grace of God go I go I

Mother dear she can see inside

Mother dear and I've nowhere to hide

Mother dear did I spoil your plans

Mother dear I do the best I can

When I was a teenager I really did believe

That my parents had adopted me

And the way I carried on they must have thought

They'd brought the wrong little baby home from maternity

I'd like to say I'm sorry but my

Mother dear she already knows

Mother dear she'll never let me go

Mother dear kept me warm and safe

Mother dear I'll never lose my faith in mother dear

If I ever get arrested by the CIA

Because they take me for a foreign spy

They won't need no lie-detector all they'll have to do

Is make me look into my mother's eyes

And I'll tell them anything they like

Mother dear she can see inside

Mother dear and I've nowhere to hide

Mother dear kept me warm and safe

Mother dear I'll never lose my faith in mother dear

Mother dear

Mother dear

My mother dear

Mother dear did I spoil your plans

Mother dear I do the best I can
