Mommy, I love you dearly
Please tell me how in French
My friends used to call me
Paule, Lise, Pierre, Jacques ou Louise
Groulx, Papineau, Gauthier
Fortin, Robichaud, Charbonneau
Mommy, mommy, how come it's not the same
Oh mommy, mommy, what happened to my name
Oh mommy, tell me why it's too late
Mommy, I love you dearly
Please tell me where we used to live in this country
Trois-Rivières, Saint-Marc, Grand-Mère
Gaspé, Dolbeau, Berthier
Saint-Paul, Tadoussac, Gatineau
Mommy, mommy, how come it's not the same
Oh mommy, mommy, there's so much in a name
Oh mommy, tell me why it's too late, too late
Mommy, mommy, I love you dearly
Please sing the song you sang when I was a baby
Fais dodo, Colas mon p'tit frère
Fais dodo, mon p'tit frère, fais dodo, tu auras du lolo
Mommy, mommy, I remember the song
Oh mommy, mommy, something seems to be wrong
Oh mommy, tell me why it's too late, too late
Mommy, mommy, I love you dearly
Please tell me once again that beautiful story
Un jour, ils (partirent de France) partirent de France
(Bâtir ici quelques villages, une ville, un pays) bâtir ici quelques villages, une ville, un pays
Mommy, mommy, how come we lost the game
Oh mommy, mommy, are you the one to blame
Oh mommy, tell me why it's too late, too late
Much too late
