[Verse 1]
Oh mother, why are you crying, come to me
Lay your head on my shoulder, I'm your son, can't you see?
Misfortune, oh mother, you're about to praise
Never let them things get you down, no, they were meant to be

Whoa yeah, give thanks to the father, yeah
That all these things you can see
Try to love him more and more each day
So you may live to see another day, yeah, oh yeah

Oh mother, don't you worry, oh no
I'd like you to understand yeah, that you're a part of every plan
Yеah, oh, oh yeah yeah
