Young Provider

Young Provider

 

He makes his own sandwiches

And mows the family yard

And does all the other chores

And lives a life grown hard

 

It is a trying time for him

Everyone would say

He has so many responsibilities

And struggles every day

 

He is the one reliable

And his family’s provider in life

Although asked to be a man

He remains a child inside

 

He lives his life for music

With a little shop

He sells old records and CDs

And it is a regular job

 

He earns a check every week

And fills his father’s shoes

And they still have a family

He and his siblings too
