My Young Son
by Dan Valentine
My young son starts school today
It’s going to be sort of strange and new to him for awhile, and I wish you would sort of treat him gently
You see, up to now he’s been king of the roost
He’s been boss of the backyard
His mother has always been near to soothe his wounds and repair his feelings
But now things are going to be different
I wish you would sort of look after him
Take him by the hand and teach him things he would have to know
But do it gently, if you can.
