Over deze songtekst:
Tom zingt hier het 2de couplet van het lied dat uit 2 coupletten bestaat.
Het eeste couplet is:
Of things I should be thankful for I've had a goodly share
And as I sit here in the comfort of my cosy chair
My fancy takes me to a humble eastside tenement
Three flights up in the rear to where my childhood days were spent
It wasn't much like Paradise but 'mid the dirt and all
There sat the sweetest angel, one that I fondly call..
My yiddische momme I miss her more then ever now My yiddische momme I long to kiss her wrinkled brow I long to hold her hand once more as I did in days gone by And I beg her to forgive me for things I did to make her cry How few were her pleasures, she never cared for fashion's styles Her jewels and her treasures, she found them in her baby's smiles For I know that I owe what I am today To that dear little lady so old and so grey To that wonderful yiddisch momme Mother of mine
