The Child's Side Of Life 
Recorded by Johnny Horton
Written by Joe Nixon and Tommy Thomas

C F
A little boy stood crying in a courtroom
G7 C
Before a judge with a face so grim and cold
F
He brought tears to the eyes of all the jury
G7 C
As they listened to this story that he told

F
I know my mom’s not a honky tonk angel
G7 C
I know she’s not bad like people say
F
I know my dad didn’t mean the words he uttered
G7 C
When he said she went a wild and wicked way

F
I know my daddy loves me and he loves my mommy
G7 C
Cause he told us that the day we said goodbye
F
He wouldn’t tell us that he loved us and not mean it
G7 C
I know daddy wouldn’t tell his son a lie

F
I couldn’t live without mommy and daddy
G7 C
Cause they mean so much to me judge don’t you see
F
There’d be no mom to kiss and tuck me in at bedtime
G7 C
There’d be no dad to hold and bounce me on his knee

F
So won’t you ask my daddy if he’ll kiss my mommy
G7 C
Ask my mom if she’ll kiss my daddy too
F
Then I’ll know that all my prayers have been answered
G7 C
And the three of us can start our life anew

F
A silence fell upon that crowed courtroom
G7 C
As each one thought these words that Jesus spake
F
And the little child shall lead them was that wisdom
G7 C
And the home began to build instead of break
