| Hey… I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| Mommy loves to work and daddy loves to play
|
| Sometimes daddy got to go far away
|
| I’m too young to go quiet in the night
|
| Try to put me to sleep I’m gonna give it a fight
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| Wake you up at 5 am
|
| Before the sunrise I’ll be your friend
|
| And you know I don’t like for you to take too long
|
| Just come running when you hear this song
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| Well now… I'm gonna miss you now Mr. Far Away
|
| Paint a picture of you and send it off today
|
| And when you come home you can bring it back to me
|
| Color in the lines, define this whole world for me
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| Practice makes perfect and that I agree
|
| So don’t be surprised that I want to be free
|
| I know what I know and that’s all that I know
|
| But I been told you reap what you sow
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| Mama’s telling me what to eat today
|
| But I don’t feel like I’m gonna go that way
|
| What I need is something sweet and nice
|
| What I need is a treat alright
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| I’m gonna cry, cry, cry
|
| Set the children free
|
| Set the children free
|
| Set the children free
|
| Set the children free
|
| Free up their hearts, free up their minds
|
| Set the children free
|
| Free up their dreams and their imagination
|
| Set the children free
|
| Set the children free |
