Mama Cass Elliot �
'Cherries Jubilee' lyrics

Through the hard times of my life, you came to me
And you said that you�d be there
You reached out your hand and said come on
I remember times when I, I didn�t want to be
You congratulated me for being strong and hangin� on

You brought me happiness and taught me how to sing
You have given me my wings and now I�d like to offer you
This mandolin that�s been in my family
It�s been around since �33 or �32

Now I know you need a lady and I want to see
I want to see you with someone who will love you strong and let you be
And in the morning when she comes to you
She�ll bring to you a fresh papaya with mint tea
Scrambled eggs, and cherries jubilee

You brought me happiness and taught me how to sing
You have given me my wings and now I�d like to offer you
A friendly call when you�re down and feeling blue
You know what I�d like to do is offer me to you

You know I love you like my brother and I want to be
I want to be your special friend
I want to know you when we�re 93

You brought me happiness and taught me how to sing
You have given me my wings and now I�d like to offer you
Some scrambled eggs and some cherries jubilee
You know where I�d like to be is home with you
Home with you
Home with you
