Written by Ben Sands. Ben is an Irish folk singer and a member of the famous Sands family of singers. The song was also recorded by Nathan Carter along with Foster And Allen. The guitar chords are included also. Some of the lyrics of this song are used in the Huggies / Diapers T.V. commercial which is shown in America and Canada.
I remember I wasn't much older, four or maybe five at the most,
And going to school morning were colder, there was no such thing as a Bus.
Our mother would be searching for school bags and combing our hair the wrong way,
As she buttered our toast and buttoned our coats, here's what my mother did say.
Ah we all need a hug in the morning, and one at the end of the day.
And many as possible squeezed in between to keep life's troubles at bay.
No matter where ever you ramble, our problems be great or be small.
It is my believe that for instant relief, a hug is the best cure of all.
I met an old exile in Boston, he longed to go back home one day.
But he thought no one there would be caring, for he'd been so long away.
To stop the tear drop in his coffee, he gave his old whiskers a tug.
And he knew all he'd give all he needed to live, for a big welcome home again hug.
Ah we all need a hug in the morning, and one at the end of the day.
And many as possible squeezed in between to keep life's troubles at bay.
No matter where ever you ramble, your problems be great or be small.
It is my belief that for instant relief, a hug is the best cure of all.
A letter can bring consolation, a phone call can brighten the night.
In the midst of great aggravation, they can put at least some things to right.
When your heart just feels like it's breaking, your life's slipping down past the plug.
And you feel like a ghost, the thing you want most is someone to give you a hug.
Ah we all need a hug in the morning, and one at the end of the day.
And many as possible squeezed in between to keep life's troubles at bay.
No matter where ever you ramble, your problems be great or be small.
It is my belief that for instant relief, a hug is the best cure of all.
And going to school morning were colder, there was no such thing as a Bus.
Our mother would be searching for school bags and combing our hair the wrong way,
As she buttered our toast and buttoned our coats, here's what my mother did say.
Ah we all need a hug in the morning, and one at the end of the day.
And many as possible squeezed in between to keep life's troubles at bay.
No matter where ever you ramble, our problems be great or be small.
