1
He put his arm around her shoulder
2
And with a voice that sounded older
3
He said, "Mom, I got something on my mind
4
I don't wanna bother you but
5
I sure need to talk to you
6
If you can only spare the time
7
And Mom, I hope you understand
8
How much I love and need you
9
And I don't want you to take this the wrong way
10
But don't you think I'm old enough
11
And big enough and strong enough
12
To play the games that daddies play?"
13
My friend, Billy Parker's dad
14
Came by today to see me
15
And he wondered if I'd like to go
16
With him and Billy on a hike
17
And maybe camp out overnight
18
The way I've seen 'em do in picture shows
19
And there's one thing I'd like to do
20
And maybe if I ask him to
21
He'd sit and talk with me, man to man
22
We'd only be gone overnight
23
And I could find out what it's like
24
To play the games that daddies play
25
She quickly turned to hide the tears
26
From her son of seven years
27
He didn't know she'd read between the lines
28
He'd never really known his dad
29
And although he'd never ask
30
She knew exactly what was on his mind
31
She searched her mind in desperation
32
Six long years of separation
33
Dimmed the words she knew she had to say
34
I hope you're never big enough
35
Or old enough or bold enough
36
To play the games that daddies play
37
I know you need and want his love but
38
Son, you're the victim of
39
Another kind of game that daddies play
