Lyrics For the Kids - Sammi Smith

You work like a slave for the kids
And I'd go to my grave for the kids
But we've watched our love fade
As we suffered and stayed
With this bargain we made for the kids
Divorce is a curse for the kids
But this tension's much worse for the kids
Guess they're now old enough
And they're made of strong stuff
Still it's gonna be rough for the kids
These teardrops that fall for the kids
You know they're really not all for the kids
But I know you don't care
And the only love there
Is the love that we share for the kids
Find a new love, you should, for the kids
And I hope that she's good for the kids
And though I'm out of sight
If she don't treat 'em right
I'll be right back and I'll fight for the kids
But I see you don't care
And now all that we share
Are our hopes and our prayers for the kids
