Mama From the Train
Patti Page
Written by Irving Gordon
Peaked at # 11 in 1956
According to legend, songwriter Irving Gordon based the unusual wording of this
song on the speech patters of the Amish in Pennsylvania. Years later, Patti later
admitted the title's double-meaning never occurred to her while she was recording
it. This title later inspired a hit 1987 comedy starring Danny De Vito and Billy
Crystal, "Throw Momma from the Train."
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
Wave mama from the train a goodbye
Throw mama from the train a kiss a kiss
And don't cry, my baby, don't cry
How I miss that sweet lady with her old-country touch
Miss her quaint broken English called *Pennsylvania Dutch*
I can still see her there at the station that day
Calling out to her baby as the train pulled away
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
Dry mama all your tears, won't you try?
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
And eat mama up all her pie
Can't believe that she's gone now, it's a lonely old town
Yet I know that her heavenly love keeps looking down
'cause whenever I happen to be passing through
I could swear she was there with the warmth I once knew
And I
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
Wave mama from the train a goodbye
Throw mama from the train a kiss, a kiss
And she throws one back from up high
TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: Pennsylvania "Dutch" is truly of German origin from
"Deutschland" being thought of as "Dutchland." It varies from standard English in
that the word order is markedly different. Other "Pennsylvania Dutch" expressions
include "Look the window out and see who the gate comes in" and "Vee are too
soon oldt und too late schmart."
