kenny price – birds and children fly away lyrics
[verse 1]
papa stood beside her as the bus pulled in that day
to take me from my childhood to a man
i believe it was the first time i saw either of them cry
as mama held on tight to papa’s hand
[verse 2]
mama handed me a sandwich and some money she had saved
and whispered that she knew i’d be a good man
she tried to smile as she told me that mothers always know
the only way to come back is to go
[chorus]
birds and children fly away
like the clouds on a windy day
and there’s usually a rainbow after the rain
birds and children fly away
that’s the master’s plan you know
children are his gift to make love grow
and i can still hear my papa say
“don’t cry mama, birds and children fly away.”
[verse 3]
a thousand thoughts flashed through me as i watched them wave goodbye
how they taught me to fish and love and pray
i gave the man my ticket and heard papa gently say
“don’t cry mama, birds and children they just fly away.”
[chorus]
birds and children fly away
like the clouds on a windy day
and there’s usually a rainbow after the rain
birds and children fly away
that’s the master’s plan you know
children are his gift to make love grow
and i can still hear papa say
“don’t cry mama, birds and children fly away.”
