Heather Grows

Well your daddys supposed to work too many bumps on the head
Theres bills and theres habits, and theres mouths to be fed
Mama she quit trying about age 22 now youre just the right size
Its all getting left up to you

Chorus:
As if growing up wasnt hard enough to do
Theres so much more the world is putting you through
Do you need some understanding God only knows
That Heather is a flower and Heather grows, Heather grows

Ive been around your family 16 odd years
Your brothers and sisters made you wise beyond your years
Love and cucarachas is all that theres a lot of
If you aint playing mama, then the kids arent being thought of

(Chorus)

With the world upon your shoulders and your baby on the way
You realize the stage youre on and the parts youve got to play
Your life is not a tragedy bringing joy to every day
Love will come returning for all the love you gave away

(Chorus)
