Verse 1
G 
A 
D 
G 
D 
A little boy stood
G 
crying in a courtroom
A 
D 
Before a  judge with face so grim and cold
G 
He brought tears to the eyes of all the jury
A 
D 
As they listened to the story that he told
G 
I know my mom's not a honky -tonk angel
A 
D 
I know she's not as bad like people say
A 
D 
I know my daddy didn't mean
G 
the words he uttered
A 
When he said she went a
D 
wild and wicked way
I know my daddy loves me
G 
and he loves my mommy
A 
Cause he told us that the
day he said goodbye
D 
He wouldn't tell us that he loved us
G 
and not mean it
A 
D 
I know my daddy wouldn't tell his son a lie
I couldn't live without
G 
Mommy and Daddy
A 
They mean so much to me, Judge,
D 
don't you see?
A 
D 
There'd be no Mom to kiss
G 
and tuck me in at bedtime
A 
There'd be no dad to hold
D 
and bounce me on his knee
So won't you ask my daddy
G 
if he'll kiss my mommy
A 
D 
Ask mom if she will kiss my daddy too
Then I know that all my prayers
G 
have been answered
A 
D 
And the three of us can start our lives anew
A silence filled up on that
G 
crowded courtroom
A 
Each one thought of the words
D 
that Jesus spake
A 
D 
A little child shall lead
G 
them was that wisdom
A 
D 
And homes began to build instead of break
