Child's Song

Goodbye Momma, goodbye to you too Pa
 Little sister, you'll have to wait a while to come along
 Goodybye to this house and all it's memories
 We 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
 It's funny how the same old crooked pictures
 Just don't seem the same to me tonight
 ♪
 There ain't no use in shedding lonely tears Mamma
 There ain't no use in shouting at me Pa
 I can't live no longer with your fears Mamma
 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
 It was long ago, you must remember
 You were once as young and scared as me
 ♪
 I don't know how hard it is yet Mamma
 When you realize you're growing old
 
 I know how hard it is not to be younger
 I know you've tried to keep me from the cold
 ♪
 Thanks for all you done, it may sound hollow
 Thank you for the good times that we've known
 But I must find my own road, now to follow
 You will all be welcome in my home
 Got my suitcase, I must go now
 I don't mind about the things you said
 
 I'm sorry Mom, I don't know where I'm going
 Remember little sister, look ahead
 ♪
 Tomorrow I'll be in some other sunrise
 Maybe I'll have someone at my side
 Mamma, give your love back to your husband
 Father, you've have taught me well, goodbye
 ♪
 Goodbye Mamma, goodbye to you too Pa
