[AURORA AQUINO]
When I asked my son
What do you want to be?
I was a little surprised
When he said to me
"I wanna' be a drummer, mom
I wanna' be a drummer
I gotta' call the people, mom
And get 'em all together
I wanna' be a drummer, mom
I wanna' be a drummer
I gotta' call the people, mom
And get 'em all together"
Now I watch the procession
As his body goes by
Half the country is here
But they won't see me cry
Ten thousand or more
And they've waited for hours
When I asked why are you here
They said, "Just ask the flowers"
They said, "Just ask the flowers"
When I asked my son
What do you want to be?
I was a little surprised
When he said to me
"I wanna' be a drummer, mom
I wanna' be a drummer
I gotta' call the people, mom
And get 'em all together
I wanna' be a drummer, mom
I wanna' be a drummer
I gotta' call the people, mom
And get 'em all together"
Now I watch the procession
As his body goes by
Half the country is here
But they won't see me cry
Ten thousand or more
And they've waited for hours
When I asked why are you here
They said, "Just ask the flowers"
They said, "Just ask the flowers"
