Now our little boy came up to his mum
in the kitchen this evenin'
While she was fixin' supper
And he handed her
a piece of paper he'd been writin' on
And after wipin' her hands on her apron
She read it - and this is what it said
For mowing' the lawn - five dollars
For makin' my own bed this week - one dollar
And for goin' to the store - fifty cents
An' playin' with little brother,
while you went shoppin' - twenty-five cents
Takin' out the trash - one dollar
Gettin' a good report card - five dollars
And for rakin' the yard - two dollars
Total owed - fourteen seventy-five
Well, as mum looked at him standin' there expectantly
And I could see the mem'ries flashing through her mind
And so she picked up the pen, and turnin' the paper over
This is what she wrote
For the nine months I carried you
Growin' inside me - No charge
For the nights I've sat up with you
Doctored you, and prayed for you - No charge
For the time and the tears
That you've cost through the years, there's No charge
And when you add it all up
The full cost of my love is No charge
For the nights filled with dread
And all the worries ahead - No charge
For advice and the knowledge
And the cost of your college - No charge
For the toys, food and clothes
and even for wipin' your nose
There's No charge, son
And when you add it all up
The full cost of my love, is - No charge
Well, when he finished readin'
He had great big old tears in his eyes
And he looked up at her
standing there and said
"Mama, I sure do love you".
Then he took the pen,
And in great big letters
He wrote PAID IN FULL
Jehovah knows when you add it all up
The cost of real love is - No charge
My mother passed away day before yesterday and this will be played at her funeral because I used to play this single 45 on the radio gram in the early 80’s when I was about 6, a mothers love really knows no bounds.
🙏💜💓🎶🌈🥰
Wow this song is still relevant today, children needs to listen to this lyrics
yes agree
My 22 year old son (at Uni) shed tears when I played this yesterday .... Yes, we have embraced materialistic things seemingly at the expense of life's beautiful values
2 yrs ago!
my mum has this 45.... today she turned 74 years ....thanks mum...i love you
I was an absolute horror when I was a kid and my mother made me listen to this song about 10 years ago and with that I was just in tears and I couldn't apologise enough to her cos I was I horrid child but as a grown up I have learnt to appreciate her hell lot more than I did.
I love ya mam x
I played it to my son today thought he needed reminded about no charge .. it set him straight … he apologised and I accepted.. I love this song 3 July 2023
Just came across this little number, my god - this song is so powerful, so mush so, it's so overwelming that by the time the lady backup singer started tears were streaming down my cheeks as a flood of memories swamped over be as I remembered my mom borrowed some money off me to pay for what she said "was things she had to pay" and I remembered calling her days later to say to her "the money you owe me - I've scrubbed it, you owe me nothing" and I said "I will never mention it again" and I never did. The next day I visited my mom and she was in the best happiest mood I'd have ever seen her in a long time until we both broke into tears for no reason and no I didn't mention it and I never asked what the money was for. I did it out of pure unconditional love. My mom passed away 8 years ago now and this song reminded me of the love, care and dedication we had between me and my mom.
I love this song, i was only 15 in the hot summer of 1976, love the words, now i am 59. a classic song .
Best ever song for me in my entire life and my lifetime is quite long VERY TRUE AND EMOTIONAL
I remember when I was a child buying this single to give to my mother. ❤️
well done!
Hello Robert
Whenever I hear no change I think of my Mum who passed in January this year and I 😭 thinking about my Mum
This just had me sobbing. I've not heard this song since I was a child. It was my Nans favourite. I miss her terribly
Ohhh dear , surely best ever song for me ever and I must have heard it 1.000 times at least and every time shedding tears
What a genius person who wrotethe lyrics!!!!!
My gramma played this for me ... she has passed makes this much more to me then just a song now...
Miss u gram
Hello Matt
Brings a tear to the eye. Wonderful.
mine too.
The lovely Vicki Brown was taken with cancer far too soon. She has the voice of an angel and deserves respect (and love) from us all. Dearest Vicki so sad that you were taken from us.
Just heard this on one of the music channels this evening, what a banging voice Vicki had. Thank you for naming her, I hope you are well ten years later 👍🏼
@@papapabs175 Thanks for asking, yes I am still well thank you.
Great philosophical song . All children should be played this at school !! I love my parents !!!
The lovely Vicki Brown ( first wife of Joe Brown and mother of Sam) sadly passed 32 years ago. Beautiful person, gone but never forgotten.
Yes, I was wishing J J would shut up so we could hear her!
In the sixties she and Joe would sometimes came into a pub near me - demolished, now - which was known locally as 'Charley Brown's', coincidentally.
32 years?? How sad. She was an amazing singer
When this song came out..I bought the seven single to give to my son...a mere toddler at the time...he is 42yrs now...seven single went missing somehow during the years...but thankfully...I would never have had use for it...as my children(all 3of them)never gave me reason to....still love the song...brings back good memories...
It mint no cash can buy love
This was number 1 in the UK on the day I was born.
My lovely mum passed in January last year and when ever I play NO Charge I cry and think about my lovely mum.I miss and love my mum very much
I'm 46. My mum passed away 6 years ago to this day, (one day before mothers day). Ozzy osbourne, no more tears is a good song too. Have a good one. :)
And no more tears-ozzy oz.
What a fantastic singer, sorry I had never heard of her
My dad made me listen to this when i was 16 and a tear away, my dad passed away recently.
always brings a tear to my eyes.. brilliant song
My dad brought this song on 45, because me and my sister used to pester my mum for extra pocket money for doing the chores etc. He made me and my sister sit down and said, I want you two to listen to every word of this song. We did and we both sobbed our hearts out. I miss my mum so much now she’s an angel, my Dad too, RIP mum and Dad love you with all my heart, see you on the other side xxxxxx ❤️ ❤️
I always get tears in my eyes with this song! I remember when it came out my dad bought the 45 and played it for us kids because back then we didn't get any allowance for chores and we would complain that we couldn't get any money from them!
I'm 73 now and this brings tears to my eyes when I remember my parents, my mum passed away aged 51 when I was only 11 years old and my day passed on aged 57 when I was only 19, miss you mum & dad
This song is still very relevant today and every day
1992 I came across this song now in 2021 August 24 still relevant
i brought up 4 children without a husband, and when my mother hears this song she cry i love this song xx
Helen Cook your a good mummy Helen x
My Dad used to give me a good hiding growing up in the 1970s, I’m pretty sure I deserved it. He gave me the tools to survive in a tough world. My Mum was gentle and worked hard to feed 4 kids with little money. We all turned out with a good work ethic, thanks Mum and Dad, they’ve been married 60 years next year.
Beautiful song. I heard it for the first time while my whole family was in bed sleeping and I in pain making sweets to my husband birthday. I have wake up in pain and went to hug my daughter...she gave me cold shoulder and said that she didn't love me for the first time...(asked her why, she didn't want to tell me.).
I played it to all in the house and she did bursted in tears and said sorry.
A mother's love priceless and as the song says no charge.
The cost of real love is no charge. Wow wow wow I have two gorgeous daughters an it's so true that cost of true love is no charge. Ami + Elle ❤
We lost my mother in law 29 th April this year and she loved this song to son tod Christine we miss you ❤️❤️❤️
very emotional, brilliant song
From the time I heard this song back 6 years ago, I loved it to this very day. Thank Goodness I FINALLY found it!
I first heard this song over 40 years ago....and I've never forgotten it.
Me too
At first I started to listen and almost didn't let it finish, I am so glad I did. I had tears in my eyes, this is really heartwarming. And I am a lover of rock, & metal music. Guess u have to give songs a chance or u can miss a lot. :)
Ditto to all of the above. Tears roll down cheeks well.
Dam Wish my Mum Was Here A's AIM Poorly lungs.etc Last night I had a Dream 😉 She Came Back Home 👍 To, Stroke my Hair.🥰🤗 XXX in The Sick bed Aside mum's & Dad's 🙏🙏🙏💓
Another great song from an extremely hot and diverse year of music wonderful memories. Now mum has passed its a difficult listen but the words so true mum was everything to us. 76 was the greatest year ever .
Fabulous song. So relevant at any time
My late Mom loved this song and reminded my sister and I of her No Charge efforts...now it all makes sense....a beautiful track ,thanks JJ!
Wow i have found this song that my brother Gary had sent to our mum about 40 years ago I love this song and it so true.
May you both rest in peace. love you both and mum No Charge xoxox
Theresa Ritchie I like this :)
This song is decades before my time but Nick Abbot sent me… I’m thankful
Love you Mum 😢
Long time but not forgotten
Moms, u dont owe anything to your children. Thanks so much.
Was thinking about my mum today been exactly 17 yes since she passed. She absolutely loved this ....miss her
I wish I could of had this conversation with my mum xxx
I can't believe this song is 48 years old and I was only a girl when it came out. Good song still.😅
This Classy Cover from this Canadian made UK No1!.
I remember hearing this song on the radio while riding with my dad. He said it was his favorite song, he taught me a lot.
Always makes me well up.
Beautiful.
one of the most heartbreaking songs of all time !!!
Yep, has me with great big ol' tears every time. Wonder how many kids of today would actually get the words of this song.
Love dis song gonna wanna take you back there part of your memories or thoughts
Beautiful beyond description!
Lovely little song x
Played this 2 my daughter laughed her head off fab song love my kids so much deffo no charge
Can you translate this to English for me?
@ian3580 it's called txt speech, i believe. Reading this, however, is hard work. Does she mean she played it to only one kid and left out the others, or is the "s" a typo and there is only one kid? The odd comma here & there would make it more readable.
tHIS SONG brought tears to my eyes......thinking of all that my parents did for me without expecting any thing in return.....I have grown up kids today ( Girl and boy) did so much for them as a single parent for 18 yrs.....I am not expecting anything back but my kids do so much for me now .... to keep me happy
I would probably pick Parker Penman Sapphire. I love you, Alex. Mummy will always love you and get true justice for you xxx
Beautiful. Listened to this when I was a kid
just beautiful
remember this version still love it and the lady singing the reply lovely voice cant remember her name love her voice pretty to
Vicky brown
@@jodeldk thats it thank you for that married to joe brown
Mama I sure do love you 😪😪😪😪
for the cost of your college, no charge, thanks to #POTUSXLVI
A listen to this could make a difference
Shout out for the late great Vicki Brown on vocals.
What an amazing resumé she had. She transformed this piece of MOR schlock into something special.
Wow what a song . Children should listen to this song. Maybe they might learn something
Along with Peters and Lee in 1973 and Charles Aznevour in 1974 both of which I much prefer especially P&L which is one of my all time favs this has to be one of the shock number ones of the 1970's if not all time. But anyway there you go it takes all tastes.
what a brilliant voice that lady has
Joe Brown’s late wife, Vicki.
Super song
Just showed this to my kids, thankless shits. Made them think!!... For a few minutes, then back to normal. One day they will understand and show there offspring this very video!!
timduley3 nice
Dis a good song they need to listen
They are just kids, timduley. Don't be too hard on them
you did them a great service bringing them into this.Maybe one day YOU will understand....
nice song for moms!!
Guilt trip on a poor child will traumatise him and social services should be reported ASAP.
😂
Great song
Love this today they have it good spoilt
this is a really nice song, with a loving message :)
Call me soft but as a parent and grandparent this still brings a lump to my throst !!!
Yep.
This was my mums favourite song, everytime I listen to this it brings me to tears, i think all children should listen to this. I didn't get much when I was a child but u only have one mum. Mine. Wasn't the best, but she was only one I had. She is no longer with us, I didn't get to say goodbye. But such as life.
Beautiful Gospel, No Charge.
I love this
STILL one of THE BEST!!!!!!❤❤
Lovely words.
So much truth in this song.
Love this song
It was my 32nd birthday last week, she put in my bday card to listen to this.. don't think she realises how much it meant. Presents mean nothing to me. This meant the world.
Love you mum 2019
Nice and very true no charge🇬🇧❤️
still a great song and Vicki Brown has a awsome voice but cancer took her to soon
I remember getting arrested and ending up in court for borrowing this from our local record store - as a child, I thought: "WHAT A LOUSEY SON-OF-A-GUN STITCH UP" 😦 👮♂️🚓
Mother's day and i get this song in my head x
very nice
Hello Alan
UK #1 40 years ago today (5 June 1976).
nice song
Raise a glass to great parentage!
Music with meaning, no charge.
brilliant
Amazing and wise words "The cost of real love is no charge". Tammy Wynette sings the best version with her daughter Tina
No….Melba Montgomery’s is the best version! The most heartfelt!
Ironically, I tried to listen to this but my phone but the battery was on 0% and I couldnt find a plug socket.
If the cost of real love is no charge, then how come my missus insisted on a wedding that cost me £25k?
@Billy Stanier:
1. Maybe it was NOT real love from Your Missus
and You should immediately talk about this with her, or:
2. Actually this song talks about a mother´s love 😊
Cause no one has a greater 💜love💜 than a 💐mother💐 !!!
"How much moms owe their children" brought me here
