You Better Sit Down Kids - Julie Rogers

You'd better sit down kids I'll tell you why kids

You might not understand kids just give it a try kids

Now how should I put this I've got something to say

Your father is staying but I'm going away

No we're not mad kids and it's hard to say why

Your father and I kids don't see eye to eye

Say your prayers before you go to bed

Make sure you get yourself to school on time

I know you'll do the things your mother ask

She's gonna need you most to stay in line

Keep in mind your mother's gonna need your help

A whole lot more than she ever did before

No more fights over little things

'Cause I 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 I am leaving He'll still be your dad

Just remember I love you and though I'm not here

Just call if you'll need me and I'll always be near

Say your prayers before you go to bed

Make sure you get yourself to school on time

I know you'll do the things your mother ask

She's gonna need you most to stay in line

Keep in mind your mother's gonna need your help

A whole lot more than she ever did before

No more fights over little things

'Cause I won't be there to stop them anymore

Well I have to go now so kiss me goodbye

My eyes are just red kids but I'm too big to cry

Now try to be calm kids And don't look so sad

Just cause I am leavin' I'll still be your dad

Say your prayers before you go to bed

Make sure you get yourself to school on time

I know you'll do the things your mother asks

She's gonna need you most to stay in line
