Excerpt:
And, Willy, as you grow older
Please, be the controller
Remember my schooling
Don’t let money do the ruling
Now, you just keep an upper hand
Boy! You’ve got to be the man
Be a friend, to a friend
You’ll have a friend in the end
And if you keep an upper hand
You will be a real big man
Willy, you’ll be a real big man
Keep an upper hand; keep an upper hand;
keep an upper hand
Excerpt
Here I stand your grown up girl
Ready to enter this big wide world
You helped create what you now see
You've brought out the best in me
Mom, you never left my side
You have always been my guide
A better mom could never be
Mom, you mean the world to me
When I was a child of three
Fell to the ground and scraped my knee
You were there to pick me up
You were there to comfort me
Between a mother and her child
A greater love can never be
When I hurt you feel my pain
You dry my tears, but, then again
You are the best there is to be
That’s why you mean the world to me
Stand back; just take a look at me
This fine, young, lady that you now see
Call this your great work of art
You shaped me; you molded me
You sacrificed, you stood by me
From my doubts you set me free
When I gave up, you believed in me
You helped create what you now see
You are my mother, my rock, my joy
I wish there was a mom like you
for every little girl and boy
Excerpt:
A brighter tomorrow is coming our way
The way things were, was yesterday
But, again, I need to mention
When we’re bad, we need your attention
Give us a hug, give us a kiss
Give us attention, we do insist
Please, listen to us when we say
Help us make it through the day
We’re hard headed, stubborn, noisy at play
Just doing things little children way
Give us love, discipline, guide us too
For, you must fill the grown up shoe
Living in this brand new world
So hard for little boys and girls
We used to have one family
But, now we're faced with three
One with our mom; one with our dad
And one that used to be
A brighter tomorrow is on the way
The way things were, was yesterday
Listen carefully to what we say
Help us move past yesterday
Excerpt:
Yes, I’m still extremely rich
But, in a very different way
I’ve learned a good lesson today
Yesterday, money meant everything
Today, I have an awesome new song to sing
Suddenly, life has a brand new meaning
Like the new friends I’ve met
Even bought myself a pet
Life holds so many wonderful things
It’s just great being me and in good health
I was blinded by wealth, I could not see
The beauty of life that always surround me
The beauty of the birds singing in the tree
the beauty of nature, I failed to see
I, now, see the sun, the moon, a bright star
shinning down on me from afar
The air that I breath; a rainbow in the sky
All these things, money can't buy
