Chorus:
Your mother was she ever wrong,
My mother made life just a song.
When we were a kid, Where did you want to be,
Don't answer, I'll tell you on your mother's knee.
Your mother and my mother too,
Were angels whose hearts were a shrine,
And the one up above, Sent His message of love,
 
First Ending:
Through Your Mother And Mine.
 
Second Ending:
Through your mother and my mother,
Through Your Mother And Mine.
