You Better Sit Down Kids Lyrics

Better sit down kids 
I'll tell you why, kids 
You might not understand, kids 
But give it a try, kids 
Now how should I put this 
I've got something to say 
You mother is staying 
But I'm going away 
No, we're not mad, kids 
It's hard to say why 
Your mother and I 
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 
asks 
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 
because 
I won't be here to stop them anymore 

I know you don't want this, neither do 
we 
But sometimes things happen 
That we can't foresee 
Now try to be calm, kids 
And don't look so sad 
Just cause I am leaving 
I'll still be your dad 
Just remember I love you 
And though I'm not here 
Just call if you need me 
And I'll always be near 
(Repeat Chorus) 

Well, I have to go now 
So kiss me goodbye 
My eyes are just red, kids 
I'm too big to cry
