From Father To Son

Get down son
Make yourself a man
First learn to earn
Before you love fun
Now down son!
Before comes the sun
Make yourself a man
In every way you can
Sweat ain't a pain
If it brings you to gain
You fancy rich men
You fancy a good shoe
You eye a dollar Bill 
You ain't got a clue
You can't live to steal
And get yourself through
Get down son
Make yourself a man
First learn to earn
Before here you return!
