Ray Price - Jesse Younger lyrics

Little Jesse Younger was a well respected lad Doin' all he could do to please his mommy and his dad But he never planned to be the man they said that he'd become Somehow or another now his little baby brother Is his father's and his mother's only son Everyday the neighbors say that it's a dirty shame the way We spat upon his family and scandalized their name And his parents never really ever said he'd been his own 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 teach your parents so unkind You have selfishly refused to live your life the way they planned And you started goin' your own way and speaking your own mind Jesse Younger's parents wonder where it all went wrong Now that Jesse's name is turned to ashes on their tongues But he chose to start and try to cover future of his own And he got his rathers because now his younger brother Is his father's and his mother's only son
