Album: Singin' in the Kitchen (w. Family) [RCA Victor]
(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)
Jeannie Bare & Bobby Bare, Jr.
Mama where'd I come from
Did they give me to you free
Did you buy me in a boystore
Mama, where'd you find me?
Well Bobby
I found you in a smile
And the gentleness
Hidden in your daddy's eyes.
Freddie said a bird came
And left me in a tree
Mama, where'd I come from
That don't sound right to me?
Well, I'll tell you darling, God in all his sweetness
Smiled on us yes he did
Then an angel and brought you on
The wings of love.
Did a doctor bring me
Like John said he did
And if a doctor brought me
Where'd they get kids?
Well sweetheart can you keep a secret
Hmmm well, just between a mother and her son
I'll tell ye you were born of love
And that's where you came from.
Well Bobby, now do you know
Where you came from, yes where, love...
