CHILD'S SONG
(Murray McLauchian)
Goodbye Momma, goodbye to you too Pa
Little sister, you'll have to wait awhile to come along
Goodbye to this house and all its memories
We all just got too old to say we're wrong
Got to make one last trip to my bedroom
Guess I'll have to leave some stuff behind
Its’ funny how the same old crooked pictures
Just don't seem to be the same tonight
There ain't no use in shedding no more tears Momma
There ain't no use in shouting at me Pa
I can't live no longer with your fears Momma
I love you but that hasn't helped at all
Each of us must do the things that matter
All of us must see what we can see
Though it was long ago Momma, you must remember
You were once as young and scared as me
I don't know how hard it is yet Momma
When you realize you're growing old
I know how hard it is not to be younger
I know you tried to keep me from the cold
Thanks for all you've done, it may sound hollow
Thank you for the good times that we've known
But I must find my own road to follow
You will all be welcome in my home
Got my suitcase, I must go now
I don't mind Pappa about the things that you’ve said
I'm sorry Momma but I don't know where I'm going
And remember little sister, look ahead
Tomorrow I'll be in some other sunrise
Maybe I'll have someone by my side
Momma, give your love back to your husband
Father, you have taught me well, goodbye
Goodbye Momma, goodbye to you too Pa
