Well, that mother, she got older. She got older and older and older. One day she called up her son and said, "You'd better come to see me because I'm very old and sick."

So her son came to see her. When he came in the door, she tried to sing the song:

I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always,

But she couldn't finish because she was too old and sick.

The son went to his mother. He held her in his arms very slowly rocked her back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And he sang this song:

I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always,

As long as I'm living, my Mommy you'll be.
