Words Never Written

Never forget just what my momma told me Never forget just what she said The talks we had then, proved her right The dead have gifts, but there given at night When the light is gone so you don’t need your sight Never forget what my momma told me Never forget just what she said Plenty of questions from the dead who cant speak Court full of peers with eyes that still leak cause Excessive force on the living and weak Never forget just what my momma told me Never forget just what she said She said I would learn to fall dragging down the tall And bury them while I crawl never forget what my momma told me never forget just what she said She said you must crawl to walk And learn to speak when you talk Then you can run around with poppycock. Never forget what my momma told me Never forget how she lied Never forget that my daddy told me Just how much my momma cried So here I am again my friends Now all better again Yet trying to set new trends
