No Charge (Re-Recorded)
recitation my little boy came up to me in the kitchen this evening while i was fixing supper and he handed me a piece of paper he'd been writing on and after wiping my hands on my apron i read it and this is what it said for mowing the yard... five dollars for making my own bed this week... one dollar going to the store... fifty cents playing with little brother while you went to the store... twenty five cents taking out the trash... one dollar getting a good report card... five dollars and for raking the yard... two dollars total owed... fourteen seventy-five Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com well i look at him standing there expectantly and a thousand memories flashed thru my mind and so i picked up the pen and turning the paper over this is what i wrote singing for the nine months i carried you growing inside me... no charge for the nights i've sat up with you doctored you, prayed for you... no charge for the time and the tears that you cost thru the years... there's no charge when you add it all up... the full cost of my love is no charge for the nights filled with dread and the worries ahead...
