Little Jesse
Younger was a well respected lad
Doing all he could to please
his mommy and his dad
But he never planned to be the man
They said that he'd become
And somehow or another
Jesse's little baby brother
Is his father's and his
mother's only son
Every day the neighbors say
that it's a dirty shame
The way he spat upon his family and
scandalized their name
And his parents never really ever
said he'd been disowned
But somehow or another
now his little baby brother
Is his father's and his
mother's only son
Oh, Jesse Younger you're
a devil not a man
Can you dare to treat your
parents so unkind?
You have selfishly refused to live
your life the way they planned
And you've started going your own
way and speaking your own mind.
Jesse Younger's parents wonder
where it all went wrong
Now that Jesse's name has turned
to ashes on their tongues
But he chose to starve asnd try
to carve a future of his own
And he got his druthers because
now his younger brother
Is his father's and his mother's only son.
Oh, Jesse Younger,
you're a devil not a man
Can you dare to treat your
parents so unkind?
You have selfishly refuysed to live your life
the way they planned
And you've started going your
own way and speaking your own mind.
