A child was born on a cold and windy night 

Not far away from the burning village lights 

Another son in a poor family 

Bit short on money but the loving ran free



And as he grew from a boy to a man 

His mama cried but he didn't understand 

Somehow she knew oh that someday he would go 

Into the world and a life of his own



Say goodbye but never deny 

All the love you're leaving behind 

Don't forget all the feelings you know 

They'll be with you wherever you go



Out in the world he's been living the good life 

House, car and money with a true and loving wife 

A child is born to this new family 

They gave her everything with love guaranteed



And as she grew and the quarrels began 

Her papa cried but she didn't understand 

Somehow he know oh that someday she would go 

Into the world and a life of her own
