jackie whitren - give her the day lyrics

well, it happened just after i was born
my father passed away
he left my darling mother alone
to bring us up the very best way
and every night, before we slept
she’d sing us a beautiful song
and when she thought we were sleeping
she say “lord, please don’t treat them wrong

oh lord, please give ’em a day
when they can wake up
and feel the sun shining on them
oh lord, please givе ’em a day
when they can wakе up
and feel the breeze blowing their bad dreams away.”

well, the years went by, and we grew up
my mother struggled [with slew?]
and my brother, he left us for a foreign land
and i know he’s very happy there, too
and now my mother is leaving to join him there
and a life that she d+mn well deserves
but i’ll stay right here, i’ll sing them this song
i’ll borrow my mother’s words:

“oh lord, please give ’em a day
when they can wake up
and feel the sun shining on them
oh lord, please give ’em a day
when they can wake up
and feel the breeze blowing their bad dreams away.”
well, i know i’m gonna miss her when she’s gone
she means everything to me
and may god be with her every inch of the way
when she’s sailing across the sea
and may my love be with her wherever she goes
when she reaches that foreign shore
and may her beautiful singing ring in my ears
now and forever more

oh lord, please give her a day
when she can wake up
and feel the sun shining on her
oh lord, please give her a day
when she can wake up
and feel the breeze blowing her bad dreams away, yeah
feel the breeze blowing her bad dreams away, yeah
feel the breeze blowing her bad dreams away
