JACKSON BROWNE

JACKSON BROWNE - The Only Child lyrics

rate me

Boy of mine<br>As your fortune comes to carry you down the line<br>And you watch as the changes unfold<br>And you sort among the stories you've been told<br>If some pieces of the picture are hard to find<br>And the answers to your questions are hard to hold<br><br>Take good care of your mother<br>When you're making up your mind<br>Should one thing or another take you from behind<br>Though the world may make you hard and wild<br>And determine how your life is styled<br>When you've come to feel that you're the only child<br>Take good care of your brother<br><br>Let the disappointments pass<br>Let the laughter fill your glass<br>Let your illusions last until they shatter<br>Whatever you might hope to find<br>Among the thoughts that crowd your mind<br>There won't be many that ever really matter<br><br>But take good care of your mother<br>And remember to be kind<br>When the pain of another will serve you to remind<br>That there are those who feel themselves exiled<br>On whom the fortune never smiled<br>And upon whose life the heartache has been piled<br>They're just looking for another<br>Lonely child<br><br>And when you've found another soul<br>Who sees into your own<br>Take good care of each other
