My Children

(Album: Back To The Roots - 1971)

Me and my children
Together once in a while
We go walking and talking
Seeing them smile and
Run and play
Reading their minds
Ever growing wiser
What to do
We'll go to the zoo
Right now

Lions and tigers are eating
Don't care that we stand and see

As we pass by their bars to the next attraction
The horses, the birds in their cages
Such a shame they can't be free
Like me and my children

Me and my children
So happy in the times that we ride in the day
And at night there's always a meal and a show
And then we go to the point where we say
Farewell to remember
When I go my love stays
With the children
