Said A Mother Said A Father

Homer Talbert, Herscholt Polk

Said a mother to her child
I'm counting on you
To fill the empty space and time
Before it's too late

And never let your heart grow weary
Keep a smile upon your face
Mankind needs a guiding hand
To find it's place (find it baby)
Oh yes it does (find it baby)

And maybe some of the sadness
Your smile can erase
Give it a try, my son
Give it a try, my son

Said a father to his son
It's your responsibility
To go into the world alone and face reality

And never let your footstep stumble
Upon a stone to life
Nevеr let your manhood crumble
Under thе strife (Be strong baby)
Whoa no (Be strong baby)

You and your brothers stand together
We can make it if we try
Give it a try son
That's all you gotta you do
Do the very best you can
Oh, I'm counting on you
I know It might be hard
Might get a little weary
But don't let it be sad
Oh no, too late, too late
You just keep the faith baby
And you keep right on trying
I know one day
You're going to understand what I'm saying
