He couldn't believe what his mama said
They put him in their car and he got scared
She looked at him in a such a painful way
Oh please mama, don't torture me this way

She held him close and tears fell down
He thought of the words she'd said your father is gone

Oh no, this can not be
My father would never leave me
So tell me you are joking, mama

She said he didn't suffer because he was drunk
But how could she know, she wasn't there when he sunk

Oh no, this can not be
My father would never leave me
So tell me you are joking, mama

He thought he would accept it as time passed by
But still there are moments when he has to cry
He feels his father should have been there through the years
But he'll always send him love through thoughts and through years
  
Oh no, this can not be
My father would never leave me
So tell me you are joking, mama

Tell me you are joking, mama
Tell me you are joking, mama
