El primer disc de John Lennon (9 d'octubre del 1940 - 8 de desembre del 1980) posterior als Beatles va ser John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band (1970). La primera cançó que hi trobem és Mother, en què s'adreça al seu pare, Alfred Lennon, que va abandonar la família quan John era un nen, i a la seva mare, Julia Lennon, que va morir atropellada per un policia borratxo quan el músic tenia 17 anys.
Mother, you had me
But I never had you
I, I wanted you
You didn't want me
So, I
I just got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye
Father, you left me
But I never left you
I needed you
You didn't need me
So, I
I just got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye
Children, don't do
What I have done
I couldn't walk
And I tried to run
So, I
I just got to tell you
Goodbye
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
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
Mama don't go
Daddy come home
Mama don't go
Daddy come home
