Mother -- John Lennon

Mother, you had me  But I never had you I wanted you 
But you didn't want me So I got to tell you  Goodbye 

Father, you left me But I never left you  I needed you 
But you didn't need me  So  I just got to tell you  Goodbye 

Children, don't do  What I have done  I couldn't walk 
And I tried to run  So  I got to tell you  Goodbye 

Mama don't go Daddy come home  Mama don't go
Daddy come home  Mama don't go  Daddy come home
Mama don't go  Daddy come home                       (sing365)

Mother" is actually a cry to both his parents, who abandoned him in his childhood. His father, Alf, left the family when John was an infant. His mother, Julia, didn't live with her son, although they had a good relationship; she was hit and killed in a car accident on 15 July 1958 by a drunk, off-duty policeman named Eric Clague, when Lennon was seventeen. Lennon relives the loss of his parents with lyrics such as "Mother, you had me/but I never had you"; "Father, you left me/but I never left you".                (wikipedia)
