You never allowed me to stray
You taught me to always kneel and pray
You were always happy, watching me play
But you wanted me to study everyday.
Whenever I strayed, I received a spank
You never gave me corrections with a rod or plank
You made sure that my li’l brain wasn’t blank
Today, I can’t help giving out a word of thanks.
Those days, I took it for parental misgiving
Today, I appreciate it with thanksgiving
I never knew it was a process of pure learning
Until I remembered your ‘Corrective Spanking’
