Amazing Rhythm Aces - I Pit The Mother And Father (When The Kids Move Away) - Live lyrics

Artist: Amazing Rhythm Aces

album: Alive In America (Live)


I pity the mother and the father
When the children are gone
Their life work complete
Still they must carry on
So many families separated today
And I pity the mother and the father
When the kids move away
They wanted so bad
For you to have it good
Didn't give you everything
But they did the best they could
And they know that you must move away
With a family of your own
Still I pity the mother and the father
When the children are gone
No welfare check
Or government plan
Can ease the pain
In the heart of a lonely man
Or a lonely woman
Who gave her all that you might live today
Yes, I pity the mother and the father
When the kids move away
In the olden days
A family never strayed far from home
One or two might move away
But the rest would carry on
But we're scattered to the winds
In this old world today
And I pity the mother and the father
When the kids move away
No miracle drug in a nursing home
Can say, I love you mama and daddy
When you're all alone
To a man or woman who gave their all
That you' might live today
Yes, I pity the mother and the father
When the kids move away
Lord, I pity the mother and the father
When the kids move away
