Teacher's smile on my father’s face
Poppa got a new job today
Momma smiles at your door
Feels so close, yet so far away

Speak holy in the name of the father
The white man ain’t tryin’ to pay me proper
I’m trying to get a ring for my baby momma
And the world for my daughter, my son, here go the flowers

Focus on a bottom line
So you never fall behind
Focus on the bottom line
What they call a dollar sign
Focus on a bottom line
Then you'll never fall behind
