[Verse 1]
At sixteen she quit high school
To make her fortune in the promised land
She got a job behind the counter
In an all-night hamburger stand
She wrote faithfully home to mama
"Now mama, don't you worry none
From small things, mama
Big things one day come"
[Verse 2]
It was late one Friday
He pulled in out of the dark
He was tall and handsome
First she took his order then she took his heart
They bought a house up on the hillside
Where little feet would soon run
From small things, mama
Big things one day come
[Bridge]
Oh, but love was fleeting
It's sad but it's true
When your heart is beating
You don't wanna hear the news
At sixteen she quit high school
To make her fortune in the promised land
She got a job behind the counter
In an all-night hamburger stand
She wrote faithfully home to mama
"Now mama, don't you worry none
From small things, mama
Big things one day come"
