Well help me mama, for I have grinned
Save me daddy where I'm goin'
Call out to me from the ages beyondHow to remember how to be good?
How to continue when I feel I really shouldn't?
Oh how to remember how to be good?
How to continue when I feel I really shouldn't?And help me granddaddy to see the swans
Strike me granny with your golden palm
Teach me now what I could never learn beforeHow to remember how to be good?
How to continue when I feel I really shouldn't?
How to remember how to be good?
How to continue when I feel I really shouldn't?Help me great uncle to hear the talk
Show me Aunt Avis with your ageless chalk
Scratch it out for me on my cloudy retinaHow to remember how to be good?
How to continue when I feel I really shouldn't?
How to remember how to be good?
How to continue when I feel I really shouldn't?
How to remember how to be good?
How to go on? No may not shouldn't
