Jackie Wilson - My Yiddishe Momme Lyrics
My yiddishe momme I need her more then ever now
My yiddishe momme I'd like to kiss that wrinkled brow
I long to hold her hands once more as in days gone by
And ask her to forgive me for things I did that made her cry
Her jewels and treasures she found them in her baby's smiles
Oh I know that I owe what I am today
To that dear little lady so old and gray
To that wonderful yiddishe momme of mine

Jackie Wilson My Yiddishe Momme Comments
Wow !!! I am speechless way to go Mr. Excitement 💚 Jackie Wilson 🎵🎶
TERRIBLE.
His daughter Alexyss K Tylor covered this. Love them both, they are different.
Jackie Wilson the lion of the lions
Amazing Jackie Wilson. I Loved It. Great.
At the start of the song I thought he had eaten something that didn't agree with him. It actually put me off. For me he over sings the song. It is uncomfortable listening. Usually I love Jackie Wilson songs. This version is not for my taste at all.
David Walsh, You have the right to your opinion!!! BUT PLEASE SHUT THE HELL UP!!! HATER!
Yes I innerstand my Sistar ~ i hear it
Kufunya Ife Thank You
Simply beautiful such an emotional performance
Gracias
You are very welcome 🌹
Wonderful! Another amazing version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePsy05oFrTY
Perfect song for today....Mother's Day....2015.....Thank you Jackie :) You have been and always will be my favorite singer of all time. May the soul of Jackie Wilson rest in ever lasting and eternal peace. And may the songs of Jackie Wilson always be sung:) G-D BLESS :)
A Very Special Dedication To All Mothers~
Jackie Wilson:: "My Yiddishe Momme"
Great ! ..
@Marc Logan Yes, we must
Honor all the Mother's on this very Special Day! Bless all the Mom's ... Thank you!
@huggie2love I am so appreciative of your kindness, Love
and Support to my channel dear sweet , may God Bless you~ always a friend ... Kiss. Marcie xxx
Wow - he knew how to sing this song, that's for sure. Wilson converted to Judaism as an adult - I wonder if he felt his Jewish soul as a young person, or only later in life when he calmed down.
Indeed, Jackie was a Spiritual Man... his friend Sammy Davis Jr. had a huge
influence on Him, as Sammy too was a Convert... wishing you a good evening..
He sounded rather Cantorial to Me, especially in the very beginning of the song!
Thanks! You're right, Jackie sounds VERY cantorial! I was trippin' that he sounded like he could step in over at Temple Beth Sholom and no one would suspect he WASN'T a cantor, lol
A very Special song Dedicated to ALL Mothers~ Jackie Wilson "My Yiddishe Momme"
Happy Chanukah and Season's Greetings!
good one I like this one ciao Marcie xox
jackie wilson is amazing here
I must agree with you, He had a voice like no other... I'm happy you stopped by for
a listen... glad you like it... a great rendition, Al Jolson was his Idol, Happy Holidays! Thank You*
Jackie is amazing on everything lol x
Wonderful...though not sure about the intro: bit too screechy!!!
My Mom ..everything I am today ..because you showed me the way ...I am forever Grateful ..rip my beautiful mother ♡
You do any more Jackie Wilson shows in the San Diego Area let me know...hell I live in Poway would have loved to see it!
leaves me speechless
Jackie is a legend and we wish he was still here. This man was really the leader of the band. Thank yo for your insight on Mr. Wilson
Dee keep up the good work I love this song as well, because I have a wonderful Yiddish momma. Sent you a note hope to hear from you, Manny
Just getting on & read your comment.... Best wishes to you, a terrific Tribute to
ALL Mom's for Mother's Day~ I'm sure it will be great.... I love Jackie's Version,
Many of the great artists have recorded this ~ for another treat, try Tom Jones,
it should be on YT ... Tom's rendition also sensational, a truly nice way to Honour our Mom's.. Sending fond regards Pete, It will be fine, Marcie xox
I had the original LP called "You Ain't Heard Nothin' Yet". Lost all my old albums.....so thanks for the post. I'll be including this in my "impressionist" show on June 2 at a (are you ready?) Jewish Synagogue! (In Poway California)
Jackie may not have had a Yiddishe Momme, but Mrs. Wilson had a Jewish son. Jackie was a convert to Judaism. This was from Jackie's tribute to Al Jolson, whom he described as "the greatest entertainer of this or any other era, and the one man I admire most in this business." Originally this was issued on CD as part of a double album, paired strangely with Xmas songs. Today it is available by itself as a CD of 12 Jolson songs.
CarlDuke a dam Jackie could sing anything!
THAT TRIBUTE IS ALSO ON THE LP.
Mama... today is twenty five years, how I would love to hold your
hand once more... as in day's gone by... this is for You, 7-28-'12
Rest In Peace, miss and need you every day, my heart aches~ Mx
the Cantorial is amazing...he could sing anything...I heard there were songwriters who used to try to to stump Jackie by writing songs they didn't think he could sing, but he always could....although this is not the ususual fare I'd expect from JW, the more I listen to him, the more I realize there is no usual about Jackie..say it again...so versatile
@coolie60 Thanks for the lovely comment and I must agree, M x
À gréât version ,such à gréât voice even Al Jolson would be pround of him
@goldenacres52 Yes, I agree- glad you liked it, thanks for your
comment!!! He was amazing.... Marcie*
Unbelievable! This is an amazing version!
@ruthy102 Hi, thanks for the nice comment, and I certainly agree-
take care, Marcie* xxx
@CarlDuke Hi there, yes Jackie had a
truly wonderful Mama, I had the pleasure
of meeting her... they were very close, she
adored him... I can't comment on the rest,
but, yes many have covered this song- I
love this version, and some of the others.
Tom Jones, and Connie Francis are also
great renditions... Best to you, Marcie
Dee, thanks so much for posting this. I was reading something recently that Jackie actually converted to Judaism some time around 1965. So while Jackie did not have a Yiddishe Momme, I guess one could say Mrs. Wilson had a Yiddishe son. I agree that at moments he is quite Cantorial. There are a couple of other fine versions of this song on youtube by Sophie Tucker, Connie Francis and very surprisingly Patti Page.
Thanks for the lovely comment Dear Kay!!!
Best, Marcie
I agree, a great voice- I just wanted to share this song with the YouTubers, with
JW singing, another side to his many
talented singing styles!! My best to you &
David... Many thanks, Marcie & Dee xxx
Wow - what a voice ! I've never heard this from Jackie - thank you for sharing.
Blessed holidays to you. Hugs.... Toni
Mike, thanks for the nice comment- glad
you like it. Was that YOU I heard, singing
while that fire truck was just coming down
the street... I thought so, but please- they
need you to put out the fire... So do take
care, you have me laughing my *** off and
Dee too. What a great guy- we Luv You!!
Best , M*
