My Mother's Rosary - Al Jolson

作词：George Meyer/Sam M. Lewis

作曲：George Meyer/Sam M. Lewis

Long ago when I was three

My mother sang this oldain

There's an old-time melody

I heard long ago

Mother called it the rosary

She sang it soft and low

Without any rhyme without any prose

I even forget how the melody goes

But ten baby fingers and ten baby toes

She'd watch them by the setting sun

And when her daily work was done

She'd count them each and every one

That was my Mother's rosary

There's an old-time melody

I heard long long ago

Mother called it the rosary

She sang it soft and low

Without any rhyme without any prose

I even forget how the melody goes

But ten baby fingers and ten baby toes

She'd watch them by the setting sun

And when her daily work was done

She'd count them each and every one

That was my Mother's rosary

Long ago when I was three

My mother sang this oldain to me
