I'll Never Forget

When I was just a boy
My father always told me
He said believe in yourself
Believe in God and never do wrong
But then i always wondered
I never understood... oh no
But now I realize
How much it really pays to be good

I'll never forget
I'll always remember
The things that you said
Lessons you rendered
The words that you gave
Will be guiding my way

He took me by the hand and then he said
Listen my child
You see some are born poor
Some are born rich
So help when you can
And never look down on anybody
Cos no one knows tomorrow
Whether white or black, tall or short, skinny or fat
We're all the same

I'll never forget
I'll always remember
The things that you said
Lessons you rendered
The words that you gave
Will be guiding my way

He said "beware of shoes, clothes, cars and money
And all the little things that could break you Charlie
Diamonds and gold, riches and fame
These will come and pass away
Do never give your soul away"

He said beware of shoes, clothes, drugs, cars and money
And all the things that could break you Charlie
Diamonds and gold, riches and fame
These will come and pass away
Come and pass away
So never give your soul away

I'll never forget
I'll always remember
The things that you said
Lessons you rendered
The words that you gave
Will be guiding my way

I'll never forget
I'll always remember
The things that you said
Lessons you rendered
The words that you gave
Will be guiding my way

Will be guiding my way
