D-DU-UDU
I  had a sister named Emma Mississippi
 is  a river that floats in the states.
Just  like the memory in the wisdom of the water
 our  souls were connected in so many ways, well
 Even though we haven't talked in a while
 I'm still  waiting for the day to come when you will arrive
 I'm sorry  if I ruined happy times we've been through
 but no wonder,  if I can spend my days without you and
I  had a mother, and her name is Carolina
 Carolina  is a state in the states
I  think there's fifty but there's only one mother
 and she  won't even look in my face, well
 You know I'd give it all to be loved by you again
 but everything's  my fault so I'll carry the blame
 But now I'm  growing, I get older while the days pass by
 soon I'll be dying,  thinking you won't look me in the eyes
 And it's  sad
 so  sad
 Family  values
 that we had,  it's just a memory
 in your  mind, what you gone  bad
 There's no love
I  had a father named Mr Engelbert
 and Engelbert Humperdinck  sings really good
I  haven't heard him but I hear my fathers voice
 it's in the dreams  where things are like they should
I  miss your love which came naturally
 sometimes I  cry, when I think about how things used to be
 Well at least  come and visit me for only one time
 daddy I love you  but I know you won't pay me no mind
 And it's  sad
 it's so  sad
 Family values
 that we  had
 It's just a memory in your  mind
 we've gone  bad
 There's no love,  no
no
