No Charge - Kamahl[00:00:00]

Lyrics by：Howard[00:00:04]

Composed by：Howard[00:00:09]

Now our little boy came up to his mom[00:00:14]

In the kitchen this evenin' while she was fixin' supper[00:00:16]

And he handed her a piece of paper he'd been writin' on[00:00:21]

And after wipin' her hands on her apron[00:00:25]

She read it and this is what it said[00:00:28]

For mowin' the lawn five dollars[00:00:35]

For makin' my own bed this week one dollar[00:00:40]

Goin' to the store fifty cents[00:00:45]

An' playin' with little brother while you went shoppin' twenty-five cents[00:00:49]

Takin' out the trash one dollar[00:00:56]

Gettin' a good report card five dollars[00:01:01]

And for rakin' the yard two dollars[00:01:06]

Total owed fourteen seventy-five[00:01:12]

Well as mom looked at him standin' there expectantly[00:01:18]

And I could see the mem'ries flashing through her mind[00:01:22]

And so she picked up the pen and turnin' the paper over[00:01:26]

This is what she wrote[00:01:31]

For the nine months I carried you growin' inside me no charge[00:01:34]

For the nights I've sat up with you[00:01:44]

Doctored you and prayed for you no charge[00:01:48]

For the time and the tears[00:01:55]

That you've cost through the years there's no charge[00:01:58]

And when you add it all up[00:02:05]

The full cost of my love is no charge[00:02:08]

For the nights filled with dread[00:02:16]

And all the worries ahead no charge[00:02:19]

For advice and the knowledge[00:02:26]

And the cost of your college no charge[00:02:30]

For the toys food and clothes and even for wipin' your nose[00:02:37]

There's no charge son[00:02:44]

And when you add it all up[00:02:47]

The full cost of my love is no charge[00:02:50]

Well when he finished readin'[00:02:58]

He had great big old tears in his eyes[00:03:01]

And he looked up at her standing there and said[00:03:04]

Mama I sure do love you[00:03:08]

And then he took the pen[00:03:11]

And in great big letters[00:03:13]

He wrote paid in full[00:03:15]

And Lord knows when you add it all up[00:03:19]

The cost of real love is no charge[00:03:23]

When you add it all up[00:03:28]

The cost of real love is no charge no charge[00:03:31]
