Aloha Mama

[Verse 1: Peter Cetera]
Aloha mama, oh, don't go away
Aloha mama, I want you to stay
Aloha mama, won't you treat me right?
I need you, tender woman, won't you hold me tight?
Surfriding sister, I wanna taste your love
Let's make it in the garden 'neath the stars above

[Verse 2: Peter Cetera, with bandmates]
Aloha mama, oh, don't go away
Aloha mama, I want you to stay
Aloha mama, have you gotten the cure?
My heart's all broken and I feel unsure
Surfriding sister, got to fly away
I'll be back in September, that's the price I pay

[Verse 3: Peter Cetera, with bandmates]
Aloha mama, oh, don't go away
Aloha mama, I want you to stay, stay, stay, stay, stay

[Instrumental]

[Bridge: Peter Cetera, with bandmates]
Can't you feel the trade winds blowing?
There's a look in your eyes, you're going
Don't leave me now, I'm a-hurting
If you'd look in my eyes, you'd see hunger arise
Can't you feel all these years I've been crying these tears?

[Chorus: Peter Cetera, with bandmates]
Aloha mama, oh, don't go away
Aloha mama I want you to stay
Aloha mama, oh don't make me cry
Aloha mama, you know I'll die, die, die
Aloha mama, get-get that
Aloha mama, yous gonna die
Aloha mama, won't go away from here? [?]

[Outro: Peter Cetera, (Bandmates)]
Mama, don't you make me cry, ha (Mama, don't you make me cry)
Oh, mama, won't you make me cry? (Mama, don't you make me cry)
Oh, mama, won't you make me cry? (Mama, don't you make me cry)
Oh, mama, don't you bring me back (Mama, don't you bring me back)
Oh, mama, won't you make me cry? (Mama, don't you make me cry)
Oh, mama, won't you make me cry? (Mama, don't you make me cry)
Oh, mama, won't you make me cry?
Oh, mama, won't you make
Oh, mama, won't you make me cry (Mama, don't you make me cry)
