Mother's Song Lyrics - Be Good - Gregory Porter

Listen, and gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up love 

Listen, and gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up peace 

A mother who taught all of her children to love and be loved by each other 

Hold your sister's hand as she walks across life and look out for each other 

Carry your brother's load, don't you ever, ever betray him 

Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love 

Listen, gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up joy 

Listen, gather 'round me children, children of a mother whose life lifted up hope 

A mother who taught all of her children to love and be loved by each other 

Hold your baby sister's hand as she walks across life and look out for each other 

Carry your brother's load, don't you ever, ever betray him 

Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love, I believe it's on sale
