rockin' the cradle

Buffy Ste. Marie "Rockin the cradle and it's none of my own"
He's six and broke his arm
The same way I broke mine
Hey, boys will be boys
Don't say that to Gramma
she's still cryin.
but why should I care
he ain't none of mine
wouldn't wish that on anyone
tho life is so fine and
dandy, and the gods chew
you up and spit you out
like cheap penny candy.
So why the hell I drive up
north almost every day
he ain't none of mine
and I just can't say.
But damned if I can just not care
he ain't none of mine
but I have no other where to go
just follow my damned heart
tell the truth I love him so
and his snot-nosed brothers
who need a boot in the *ss
but all to soon this too shall pass

and god willing they'll be tall as
trees and standing around goofing
on me, if I'm still there to mumble
and drool.
They ain't none of mine but I'll play
the fool and be glad to do it while I
bitch and moan
that I'm still rockin'the cradle
tho their none of my own.
Maybe it was Christ on the cross
who made love hurt
but hurt it does
and what is worse

It's the best of me that I'll
ever be. Moan'in and groan'in
when they triple team me.
So, Yo! Brian, Daniel, and Sean
glad you won't see this
you'll have nothing to goof on.
And I can come by and spoil you
more than a bit
Cause that's what grampa's do
and there's no running away from it.
