I'd Never Leave You Hangin'

I guess you must be thinking

I've been avoiding you

But let me reassure you now

That just isn't true!

Why would I ever do that?

I've got child support to pay!

I'm not the kind of person

Who would try to run away!

I'd never leave you hangin'!

Well, not for long at least

I realize how you're struggling

To get those ends to meet

I'm in the same boat with you

Things are pretty rough

Everyone wants money

But I haven't got enough!

So I really hate to tell you

That the check is coming late

And I'm hoping you'll be nice about it

Just for old times sake! 

Haven't Heard From You Lately

Hi! How ya been?

Hope everything's fine

Haven't heard from you lately

So you've been on my mind

We're ok here

Just doin' our best

Struggling to make it

One day to the next

You know how it is

The kids have to eat

They need to have clothes

And shoes on their feet

But they really are worth it!

And I'll bet you'll agree

They're the best thing that's happened

Between you and me!

Well, I'd better be going

I've got so much to do

And oh - by the way

Your child support's due!
