You`d Better Sit Down Kids — текст песни (Jan Howard)

You`d better sit down kids I`m telling you why
You might not understand kids but give it a try
Now how should I put this I`ve got something to say
I will be staying but daddy`s going away
No we`re not mad kids and it`s hard to say why
Your daddy and I kids don`t see eye to eye
Say your prayers before you go to bed help me get you off to school on time
I know you`ll do the things I`ll ask of you
I`m gonna need you more to stay in line
Keep in mind I`m gonna need your help a whole lot more than I ever did before
No more fightin` no more little things cause he won`t be there to stop them anymore

I know you don`t want this neither do we
But sometimes things happen that we can`t forsee
Now try to become kids and don`t look so sad
Just cause he is leaving he`ll still be your dad
Just remember we love you and though he`s not here
Just call if you`ll need him he`ll always be near
Say your prayers...
Well your dad has to go now so kiss him goodbye
Our eyes are just red kids we`re too big to cry
You`d better sit down kids I`m telling you why
You might not understand kids but give it a try
