Junior Walker & The All Stars
Don’t Blame The Children
[Verse 1]
Oh, the times are changing
They are not what they used to be
'Cause the parents are deserting their father
And the children are running the street

[Chorus]
Bless, don't blame (Don't blame the children)
Don't blame the children (Don't blame the children)
For they know not what they do (Don't blame the children)
Hey, bless, don't (Don't blame the children)
Don't, don't blame thе children (Don't blame the childrеn)
'Cause the fault lies with you, hey (Don't blame the children)

[Verse 2]
Those that quickly point a finger
When you see a child doing wrong
Instead, take their hands and guide them
They are reflections of the older one

[Chorus]
Bless, don't blame (Don't blame the children)
Don't blame 'em (Don't blame the children)
For they know not what they do (Don't blame the children)
Hey, bless, don't blame, don't blame the children (Don't blame the children)
Don't blame 'em, now (Don't blame the children)
'Cause the fault lies with you, hey (Don't blame the children)

[Outro]
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)

(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
(Don't blame the children)
