You'd Better Sit Down Kids Lyrics - Roy Drusky

You'd better sit down kids I'll tell you why 

You might not understand kids just give it a try 

Now how should I put this, I've got something to say 

You're mother is staying but I'm going away 

No we're not mad kids, it's hard to say why 

Your mother and I, kids don't see eye to eye 

Be sure you say your prayers before you go to bed 

Make sure you get yourself to school on time 

I know you'll do the things your mother ask 

She's gonna need you boys to stay in line 

Keep in mind your mother's gonna need your help 

A whole lot more than she ever did before 

No more fights over little things 

'Cause I won't be there to stop them anymore 

I know you don't want this, well, neither do we 

But sometimes things happen that we can't foresee 

So try to become kids and don't look so sad 

Just 'cause I'm leaving I'll still be your dad
