The Good Mother

She says my son is a wonderful fellow but she never says how he is serving time
In the big prison in the big city for what is a serious crime
The bank teller he shot in an armed robbery for many weeks was hospitalized
At that he  has recovered and is again working the  doctors are even surprised

It is true what is said of the mother she always stands by her daughter and son
In public she will never condemn them though serious wrong to another they may have done
Though halfway through a seven year jail term she talks of her wonderful boy
She loves him as he were a great person he remains as her pride and joy

Though her children are not good people and to the police are well known
The good mother she will stand  by them when others them choose to disown
She always will stand by her children and  in her words never put them down
Even though they will never bring honour to their street on their side of the  town

Of her son serving time in prison she only has  good things to say
In his time of  need she stands by him from him she will never turn away
In her eyes he  is a nice person in him she can only see good
That she  should feel this way about him is not hard to be understood.
