kids, and I'll tell you why, kids.
You might not understand,
kids, but give it a try, kids.
Now how should I put this I got
Your mother is a stay -in
and it's hard to say why, but your mother and
Say your prayers before you go to bed,
make sure you get yourself to school on time.
I know you'll do the things
mother's gonna need your help
A whole lot more than she ever did before
And no more fightin' over little things
Cause I won't be here to stop
You know I don't want this
But sometimes things happen
that we just can't foresee.
Now try to be calm, kids,
and please don't be too sad.
Just because I am leaving,
you know I'll still be your dad.
Say your prayers before you go to bed,
until you get yourself to school on time.
I know you'll do the things your mother asks,
she's gonna need you more to stay in line.
Keep in mind, your mother's gonna need your help
a whole lot more than she ever did before.
And no more fighting over little things,
cause I won't be there to stop them anymore.
Remember, I love you, and though I'm not here,
you only have to call if you need me, and
Well I really have to go now,
so please kiss me goodbye.
No, my eyes are just red kids.
You know your daddy is too
Until you get yourself to school on time.
I know you'll do the things
It doesn't mean you'll never stay in line.
And your mother's gonna need to help her
hold up more than she ever did before.
And I'm a -fightin' all the little things,
cause I won't be there to help her anymore.
