No Charge Lyrics - Tammy Wynette

My little girl came up to me in the kitchen this evenin' 

While I was fixin' supper. And she handed me 

A piece of paper she'd been writing on, and 

After wiping my hands on my apron I read it 

And this is what she said. 

For mowing the yard, five dollars 

For making my own bed this week, one dollar 

Going to the store, fifty cents 

Playing with my sister while you went to the store 

Twenty-five cents 

Taking out the trash one dollar 

Getting a good report card, five dollards 

And for raking the yard, two dollars 

Total of fourteen dollas and seventy-five cents.

Well, I looked at her standing there expectantly 

And a found memory flashed through my mind 

And so I picked up the pen and turning the paper 

Over this is what I wrote. 

For the nine months I carried you 

Growin' inside of me no charge 

For the nights I sat up with you 

Doctored and prayed for you no charge 

For the toys that you chose 

And for wiping you nose there's no charge 

When you add it all up the full cost of my love 

Is no charge.

Well, when she finished reading she had 

Great big old tears in her eyes and she looked 

Up at me and said mommy I sure do love you 

Then she took the pen and in great big letters 

She wrote, paid in full. 

When you add it all up the cost of real love 

Is no charge.
