When you have a childYou learn it's a serious business to have a little funYou give grace and get forgivenessNot seven times seventy but seven times seventy oneAnd when you have a childThose four walls you call a house take on a life of its ownWhen you bring 'em home, you will cry and you will laughWhen they hurt it cuts you in half, it's your flesh and boneAnd year after year, pictures fill page after pageThey never really grow up, still your baby at any ageThe first time you hold 'em, it's like you see God smileWhat a smileWhen you have a child and then boy meets girlAnd perfume and gasoline rain on your perfect worldCurfews are often broken, thank you's aren't spokenHe's got the keys to that old DodgeAnd she's wearing a corsage and her mama's pearlsAnd year after year, pictures fill page after pageThey never really grow up, still your baby at any ageAnd the first time you hold 'em, it's like you feel God smileWhat a smileWhen you have a childYou pray that phone call never comesAnd if God forbid, how would you liveHow could you go on and on and on and on?And year after year, close the chapter and turn the pageBlue ribbons and losing season, flipping tassels on the stageOh, but you don't need a photographYou've got at least a million pictures of that smileOh, when you close your eyes, when you love a childOh, when you love a child
