Mother's Day - 24 Carat Black

Mother’s Day is coming now

Food stamps on the way

Brothers day is

It’s time to make his play

Say it one more time!

His babies are expecting now

Momma’s gonna be neglectin' now

Daddy’s comin' round

To take a momma on the town

Long rides cruise the main street

Sides and alleys too

Quick, slick tricks are being turned

By people like me and you

So this is what we have!

Say it one more time!

(Mother's Day)

Food stamps on the way

Brothers day is

It’s time to make his play

No foul weather’s accruing

And yet the welfare keeps a growin'

Taxes reach the skies

Welfare birth rates rise

to labor

Show no one any favor

Make them understand

The cost of helping hand

They’ll wash us out with glee

Politicians agree

But between you and me

The day we’ll never see

So this is what we have!

The man shakes his head

His city’s in the red

No money to be found

To clean up the bankrupted town

Renters are on the increase

Checks are on the bounce

Troubles never seem to decrease

And come pat on the ass

So this is what we have!

(Mother's Day) Mother’s Day

Food stamps…

Brother …

(Mother's Day) Mother’s Day, Mother’s Day

(Mother's Day) …is coming

(Mother's Day) … Can you feel it?

Mother’s Day

(Mother's Day)

Feel it, feel it, feel it

Mother’s Day (Mother's Day) Mother’s Day

(Mother's Day) (repeat to end)
