You lie awake in your bed and sigh
 Wishing a father could fill your home
 And as the tears roll down your face
 Soak your pillow you stop and say
 Oh mama don't you worry
 Things are going to be okay
 Though we never had much and we always fussed
 Constantly knew that you were there
 To bring us back together and to show
 How much you cared, you were always there

 You were there for me mama can't you see
 I will always be your little baby
 You took up for me gave me things I need
 Singing la la la la
 Good times went too fast though they didn't last
 I will always be filled with your memory,
 Oh mama
 I'll always be your Jamie Lee

 When you cry, I cry too
 When you hurt, I hurt with you
 So, dry up those tears, I'll always be here
 To comfort and care for you
 Though we never see each other much
 In my heart is where you'll stay, so mama
 Don't you worry, things aren't always gonna
 Be this way

 You were there for me mama can't you see
 I will always be your little baby
 You took up for me gave me things I need
 Singing la la la la
 Good times went too fast though they didn't last
 I will always be filled with your memory,
 Oh mama
 I'll always be your Jamie Lee

 Even though we're far apart, you still warm
 A place in my heart, all alone, don't know
 What to do, don't say goodbye, just say I miss you

 You were there for me mama can't you see
 I will always be your little baby
 You took up for me gave me things I need
 Singing la la la la
 Good times went too fast though they didn't last
 I will always be filled with your memory,
 I'll always be your Jamie Lee

 You were there for me mama can't you see
 I will always be your little baby
 You took up for me gave me things I need
 Singing la la la la
 Good times went too fast though they didn't last
 I will always be filled with your memory,
 Oh mama
 I'll always be your Jamie Lee
