Talking To Daddy
I had to beg my father to see your mother
I had to beg her father to allow me to see her
I had to beg her to be with me
I had to beg her to marry me
I had to beg my boss to hire me
I had to beg for a raise
I had to beg your mother to let me get her pregnant
.....I'll be damned if I have to beg you to
do something as simple as these chores!
I will just be damned!...........................
aint no time like the best time
to do the things your surposse to do.
keeping thing the ways someone wished them to be.
daddy's chore list sometimes means doing
things the way daddy would.
getting up and doing it!
getting out their and doing it right!
but sometimes you just don't see why you doing this, for them, and aint nobody
doing sqat for you.
then he gets mad and starts grabbing at his belt.
cause you aint done something for somebody
who don't give a damn about you.
I better get up and do these chores, before
this fool comes home trying to
belt lash somebody !
