Mother Please By Richard Maxfield 3-9-2000 From the time I was a child You did your best to teach Taught me fire was hot And placed it out of reach You showed me how to share And to make new friends Its how we play the game Matters not who wins By your example how People I should treat Taught me to clean the house And keep myself real neat Taught me like a man to stand And the proper way to talk Set my feet on the path of life And showed me how to walk Showed me how to respect Be a man who cares Be a person who is real And not to put on airs Mother please there is one thing I really need to know You taught how to love Not how to let it go Copyright #RM99R4Birth sign: Gemini
