Child Support |
Dear Joe, I hope you get this |
You’ve been very hard to find |
I’m sure you know your payments |
Are running months behind |
So I’m writing just to tell you |
Not to worry anymore |
I sure could use the money |
But I’ve got my child support |
He wakes me up each morning |
With a happy face |
And brings a little heaven |
To this lonely place |
His hands are tiny |
And his legs are short |
But I lean upon him |
For my child support |
Joe, I started working |
At a new department store |
My sister watches Billy |
Everyday from 8 'til 4 |
And I keep on cuttin' corners |
So he has everything he needs |
I hope I help him half as much |
As he’s been helpin' me |
You ought to see him smiling |
When I come home from work |
You could never pay me |
What that look is worth |
He doesn’t have a lawyer |
He’s never been to court |
But he’s right on time |
With his child support |
He goes to bed each evening |
With his teddy bear |
Pulls up the covers |
And says a little prayer |
And I’ve been prayin' too Joe |
Yes I thank the Lord |
For that little angel |
And his child support |
