Your Son Quotes - Page 6

• Come mothers and fathers
  Throughout the land
  And don't criticize
  What you can't understand
  Your sons and your daughters
  Are beyond your command
  Your old road is
  Rapidly agin'
  Please get out of the new one
  If you can't lend your hand
  For the times they are a-changin'.
