The patchy grass that used to grow between young feet at play,Īlas, to my new pastime in the dirt, had given way. I sat and tilled the fertile ground, preparing it for seed. Help me in my choices show me right from wrong,īut don't give me the same lame sad song.Īlone in my new garden where the swing set used to be, You say you understand us, you say you get it, If you're one of those parents that is conceited, I will turn out to be a bad girl lost and needed, Take the time to get to know and love me,Ĭause I look up to you. Parents don't understand our thoughts and dreams,Īll they see are our bad thoughts and endless schemes, They don't know about how our hope slowly dies, They don't know about all the rumors and lies, They don't know all the things peer pressure can do, Parents think they get us.but they don't have a clue, If only they knew what passes through our hands, Parent say they've been there, they say they understand, If parents want real relationship with their kids they will have to concede one thing. Though there are dangers, thoughts, and fears, Growing up is very difficult, a mixture of leaving behind and embracing new challenges.īut somehow, someway everything will be alright He's mama's little cowboy, her joy & pride.

She knows that someday the time will come, With red hair & freckles & a bump on his chin, he was off riding the trails once again. I'm the toughest of cowboys! He shouts to his steed.Īin't sacred of no outlaw, Indian, or thief!īut even the toughest of cowboys get dumped.Īnd he came thru the front door with tears & a lump. With rope in his hand & hat pulled down tight, he saddles his pony & gets ready to ride. Gotta get them doggies before it gets night. There are outlaws to catch, wild ponies to rides, He heads for the door with six guns at side. With a kiss on the cheek & a hug that's so tight. Just waiting for her to say ok go outside. Those brown eyes a shining & looking so bright. With red hair, freckles & a peanut butter face, That time is moving faster daddy and I've gone from 0 to 3.

I'm a human being daddy not a little game. I'm just asking for a daddy who puts me before a plane, Then maybe you won't get so frustrated and give up on me too.
