《I Pity the Mother and the Father (When the Kids Move Away)》歌词

[00:00:01] I Pity the Mother and the Father (When the Kids Move Away) - The Amazing Rhythm Aces

[00:00:06] I pity the mother and the father when the children are gone

[00:00:11] Their life work complete still they must carry on

[00:00:18] So many families separated today

[00:00:22] And I pity the mother and the father

[00:00:24] When the kids move away

[00:00:28] They wanted so bad for you to have it good

[00:00:33] Didn't give you everything but they did the best they could

[00:00:38] And they know that you must move away with a family of your own

[00:00:43] Still I pity the mother and the father

[00:00:46] When the children are gone

[00:00:48] No welfare check or government plan

[00:00:53] Can ease the pain in the heart of a lonely man

[00:00:58] Or a lonely woman who gave her all that you might live today

[00:01:03] Yes I pity the mother and the father

[00:01:05] When the kids move away

[00:01:14] In the oiden days a family never strayed far from home

[00:01:19] One or two might move away but the rest would carry on

[00:01:25] But we're scattered to the winds in this old world today

[00:01:30] And I pity the mother and the father

[00:01:32] When the kids move away

[00:01:35] No miracle drug in a nursing home

[00:01:39] Can say I love you mama and daddy

[00:01:42] When you're all alone

[00:01:44] To a man or woman who gave their all

[00:01:47] That you' might live today

[00:01:49] Yes I pity the mother and the father

[00:01:51] When the kids move away

[00:01:55] Lord I pity the mother and the father

[00:01:57] When the kids move away
