Come Away Melinda Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mummy, Mummy, come and look
See what I have found
A little way away from here
While diggin' in the ground
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
It's nothin' but a picture book
They had before the war
[Verse 2]
Mummy, Mummy, come and see
Oh, Mummy come and look
There's five or six Melinda girls
Inside this picture book
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
There were lots of little girls like you
Before they had the war
[Verse 3]
Mummy, Mummy, come and see
Oh, Mummy, hurry do
There's someone grown up very tall
Who doesn't look like you
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
Your father was a man like him
Before they had the war
Mummy, Mummy, come and look
See what I have found
A little way away from here
While diggin' in the ground
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
It's nothin' but a picture book
They had before the war
[Verse 2]
Mummy, Mummy, come and see
Oh, Mummy come and look
There's five or six Melinda girls
Inside this picture book
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
There were lots of little girls like you
Before they had the war
[Verse 3]
Mummy, Mummy, come and see
Oh, Mummy, hurry do
There's someone grown up very tall
Who doesn't look like you
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
Your father was a man like him
Before they had the war
[Verse 4]
Mummy, Mummy, come and see
Such things I'd never seen
There's happy faces all around
All the ground is green
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
That's just the way it used to be
Before they had the war
Mummy, Mummy, come and see
Such things I'd never seen
There's happy faces all around
All the ground is green
Come away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
That's just the way it used to be
Before they had the war
