Oh you work like a slave for the kids
And I'd go to my grave for the kids
But we watched our love fade
As we suffered that state
With this bargain we made for the kids

Yes divorce is a curse for the kids
But this intention's much worse for the kids
And they're now old enough
And they made the strongest stuff
Still it's gonna be rough for the kids

Find a new love you should for the kids
And it makes sure she's good for the kids
And though I'm now out of sight
If she don't treat them right
I'll be right back here to fight for the kids

These teardrops that fall for the kids
You know they're really not all for the kids
But you don't really care
And the only love there
Is the love that we shared for the kids

Yes I see you don't care
The home that we shared
All our hopes and our prayers for the kids
