I thoroughly enjoyed looking through this site, and found words of many songs I had known in my childhood. LITTLE BLOSSOM (I have an old 78 of this somewhere), In the Luggage Van Ahead (I have a Tex Morton recording of this) Also, the "Lightning Express" although on the recording I have of it is called "Please Mr Conductor.

What I would like the words of is the song recorded by Slim Whitman back in the 1980's called "PAINT A ROSE ON THE GARDEN WALL, so mum will think summer's still here".
I would also like the words of the "THE LETTER EDGED IN BLACK", and another old song recorded by Tex Morton that starts off:

"A stranger was reading a letter from home,
A letter which brought bitter tears,
All over this world he started to roam,
A wanderer for many long years,
Over and over he read every word
And this is what I heard.
Come back to the valley, come back to the hills,
Come back to the ones that love you so,
The old folk are weary their time is drawing nigh,
They need you their heads are bending low.
A light still burns in the window each night
To guide you wherever you may go,
Come back to the valley come back to the hills,
Come back to the ones that love you so".

That is all I can remember of it, but would love the rest. And while it is not a "Mother" song, I would like to know the words of an old music hall number "Gimme the ground"
