We hear you crying so bitterly

Trying to get people to help you, ye, ye

But nobody will

Your son was brutalizing people every time

But you said nothing

Now it's the time to pay the price

It's time to pay, ye, ye, ye, ye

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow

Coming back home with stolen things

Instead of telling him how wrong he was

You told him how clever he was

People coming out of burning houses

It's your son, driving stolen cars every time

It's your son but you said nothing

But now he's turning against you

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow

Everybody knows no jail can keep him

'Cause you rubbing shoulders with the law

But now it's time to pay the price, wo, woh

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow

You gonna reap just what you sow
