you ll be taken care of

David Byrne

Precious little childrenâ??what can I do?
Someday theyâ??ll rememberâ??what I told you

Did it together just you and me
Without a man in this family

I didnâ??t raise themâ??itâ??s you they love
They will remember the things youâ??ve done

Sometimes I felt that Iâ??ve lost my mind
Things didnâ??t work out the way we planned

And when they grow up and they make good
They will repay what I owe toâ??

Youâ??llâ??be taken care of
And theyâ??llâ??remember youâ??
Precious little children
On that you can be sure
Youâ??will never want for more

When they grow up theyâ??ll be kind and smart
And you will see that theyâ??ll all go far
I havenâ??t long but I know itâ??s true
These little ones owe a lot toâ??

Youâ??llâ??be taken care of
And theyâ??llâ??remember youâ??
Precious little children
On that you can be sure
Youâ??will never want for more

Youâ??ll be taken care ofâ??theyâ??ll remember you
Someday they will give youâ??things I never could
Youâ??ll be taken care ofâ??on that you can be sure
If thereâ??s any justice in this world youâ??ll never want for more

Somedayâ??I promise you
Rememberâ??what I say is true
Somedayâ??I promise you
Rememberâ??what I say is true
