Train Your Child

Lyrics

The subject of this lecture are: That God to solomon says
 Train the child in the way that you should go
 And when he gets old he will not depart from it
 Lots of people in the world
 Of course, you cannot blame them
 God has given them children
 And they don't know what to train them
 When you educate an untrained child
 That's brought up full of sin
 They just only got sense enough
 If they forge notes and go to the pen
 Let us train our children
 And try to keep down so much sin
 'Cause it'll be too late to cry
 When you see them going to the pen
 Lots of those little womanish girls
 That thinks themselves to be grand
 They will stand on the corners at night
 Making dates with a married man
 Those little manish boys
 With a hat sitting on one strand of hair
 Will go marry some woman's nice little girl
 And ain't got nowhere to carry her
 Education is alright
 I will tell you before you start
 Before you educate the head
 Try to educate the heart
