[G] [Gm]
I
[Cm] remember [Eb]
the song [G] my mother used [Gm] to sing [Cm] each and every morning.
[Dm] There's a flower [Cm] blooming outside
[Dm] And there ain't no [Cm] love inside [D] the brothers [Gm] and sisters mine
So [Cm]
if they can't be good [D] they've gotta [Gm] be careful
[Cm] I remember [Gm] one rainy day in March
[Cm]
My poor ma, she sent me out to [Gm] get some stuff
[Dm] I was [Cm] the only one, the [Dm] grandma
So I [Cm] had to shop and cook and clean [Gm] all day long
Without a father, only [D] the one that [Gm]
sleep with him
That's [Cm] why I praise him for [D] his mighty work
[Eb]
If I [D] stay by him, oh [Cm] I remember
The song my mother [Gm] used to sing each and every [Gm]
morning
[Dm]
There's a [Cm] flower blooming outside
[Dm]
And there [Cm] ain't no love [D] inside the brothers and [Gm] sisters mine
So [Cm] if they can't be good they've gotta be
[Gm] careful
That's [Cm] why I praise him for [D] his mighty work
[Eb]
If I [D] stay by him, oh [Cm]
