A Mother for My Children The Whispers

[Verse 1]
I can't stand to live alone
With two children and a home
When Mother's Day comes along
They ask me where their mama's gone
Left me here scrubbin' floors
Never washed the dishes before
How can I tell two little boys
Your mama ain't comin' home no more?

[Chorus]
I've gotta find a mother for my children
Don't need no sister, don't need no brother
I've gotta find a mother for my children

[Verse2]
We couldn't see eye to eye
Packed her bag, said goodbye
Didn't care if we lived or died
The kids, they always ask me why
Left us on a rainy day
Begged her but she would not stay
Said she had to go away
Gotta find someone to take her place

[Chorus]
I've gotta find a mother for my children
I don't need no sister, don't need no brother
I've gotta find a mother for my children
