Watch My Mouth
my mama told me to
watch my mouth
and watch it i did
until a boy came along
and made me want to
make use of it
because of his love
his heart and the way
he looked at me
there wasn’t a word
in this entire world
i didn’t want to speak
and even the worst of words
from his mouth sounded sweet
and there wasn’t a day
that passed i didn’t thank
the lord that we’d meet
and here in the darkest
of times
he still brings me to my knees
and i watch my mouth
just to see
the things he does to me
