Ally bally, ally bally bee
Sittin' on your mammy's knee
Every day's a Monday
Cryin' in my cornflakes
There's an empty chair where you once were
You used to fix my clothes and cut my hair
And I would sit on your knee
While you sang me "Ally Bally"
There's a quiet in the house now you're not here
And daddy doesn't know I hide his beer
And I've been sittin' at the window
Waitin' for you to come home
Your mammy doesn't live here anymore
She said she loves you, but her heart is on the floor
Oh, your mammy doesn't live here anymore
She said she loves you, but she's tired of slammin' doors
Wipe away my wet eyes
I couldn't sleep 'til midnight
And I got in another fight today
Tryna make the anger go away
February is colder
Without you to hold us
Daddy's got a tear line on his cheek
He's listenin' to "Fast Car" on repeat
And I've been sittin' at the window
Waitin' for you to come home
Your mammy doesn't live here anymore
She said she loves you, but her heart is on the floor
Oh, your mammy doesn't live here anymore
She said she loves you, but she's tired of slammin' doors
And for all the times you held me, I want more
And for all the times you held me, I want more
