Her name is Hattie McCall
She hasn't any children at all
Her name once was Jackie Reeder
trying to be there when her children
did need her
One day she woke to a thought
That all she had tried
was for naught
The children she loved and cared for
Didn't really see her anymore
Oh they'd take
whatever she had to offer
They deserved it, after all
she was their mother
They'd let her worry and be
full of fear
They'd listen to her thoughts
yet not really hear
If one day they realized
she was no longer there
She wonders if they would
really care
In her mind there is Hattie McCall
The woman who has no children at all
