1
My little girl came up to me in the kitchen this evenin'
2
While I was fixin' supper. And she handed me
3
A piece of paper she'd been writing on, and
4
After wiping my hands on my apron I read it
5
And this is what she said.
6
For mowing the yard, five dollars
7
For making my own bed this week, one dollar
8
Going to the store, fifty cents
9
Playing with my sister while you went to the store
10
Twenty-five cents
11
Taking out the trash one dollar
12
Getting a good report card, five dollards
13
And for raking the yard, two dollars
14
Total of fourteen dollas and seventy-five cents.
15
Well, I looked at her standing there expectantly
16
And a found memory flashed through my mind
17
And so I picked up the pen and turning the paper
18
Over this is what I wrote.
19
For the nine months I carried you
20
Growin' inside of me no charge
21
For the nights I sat up with you
22
Doctored and prayed for you no charge
23
For the toys that you chose
24
And for wiping you nose there's no charge
25
When you add it all up the full cost of my love
26
Is no charge.
27
Well, when she finished reading she had
28
Great big old tears in her eyes and she looked
29
Up at me and said mommy I sure do love you
30
Then she took the pen and in great big letters
31
She wrote, paid in full.
32
When you add it all up the cost of real love
33
Is no charge.
