What will happen to your mama and daddy after they have grown old

You know things're really changed a lot in these modern days

And as moms and daddys grow old seems like they kinda gettin' away

They raised a big family and then they left 'em on

Sent off somewhere to live in an old folks home

Oh they'd like to be with their children but they don't wanna impose

For you might have to wash up some of their faded old clothes

Yes they've nursed you and raised you until you were grown

But that's the thanks they get for all of this a place in an old folks home

Do you remember the many nights they sat beside your bed

And mama would place a cold cloth to your hot feveres head

And she'd say now don't you worry it'll be all right dear

For your mama and your daddy will gonna be sittin' right here

Why they sat there through the long night and then when daylight came

Mom and dad would go on with their hard day's work you'd never hear 'em complain

They nursered you cause they loved you why you were their very own

How in the world can you leave 'em out there livin' in the old folks home

Oh you have a beautiful place to live and you're drivin' a brand new car

Mom and dad would sure enjoy those comforts you enjoy livin' there where you are

Still you live there in splendor just like a king on his throne

And they're left somewhere neglected by you livin' in an old folks home

Why you have a nice room right there ahead of the stairs

And a big soft bed yes no one's sleepin' there

You have a big yardback out all full of pretty flowers

Why don't you bring 'em back from that old folks home

So the last hours would be happy hours

What will happen to your mama and daddy after they have grown old
