Children Listen More
"Children Listen More" Quote by Poet Paula Goldsmith
When I was young so very many years ago, both my parents ruled the house from morning till night; their many rules were very clear for you to know, in life growing up-taking a spouse they were right.
Rules were made by both parents and were the house laws, you did not act out and you never did talk back; like it or not you lived-died by the rules you saw, your parents were the law and would give a big smack.
Could not wait for dating since it was a big thrill, when it came to the clothes to wear and to the men;
best look and act like a lady or dad will kill, son you are told you better have her home by ten.
Oh my-all parents rules were meant to be followed,
parents need to have rules-children to listen more; today's children's heads seem to be empty-hollowed, children yelling and acting like a raging boar.
When I was young so very many years ago,
rules were made by both parents and were the house laws; could not wait for dating since it was a big thrill,
oh my-all parents rules were meant to be followed.
