Katherine Jackson is still ADAMANT her son never molested any children ... including MJ's 1993 accuser -- and insists MJ only paid the kid off because his lawyers gave him bad advice.
Katherine appeared on "Today" this morning ... where Matt Lauer asked if there was anything she wanted to clear up about her son's life.
Katherine responded, "As far as Michael being a child molester ... that's the biggest lie ever been told."
MJ's mom said she read an artigo after MJ died -- in which the 1993 accuser allegedly admitted he made up the story against Michael.
When Lauer asked why MJ forked over a settlement with the boy ... Katherine said, "His lawyers told him he should just pay the money .. they thought that just paying the money and shut the people up would be the right thing to do."
Katherine said she asked MJ why he made the mover -- and MJ told
her, "I didn't want to do it either mother, I wanted to fight it because I knew it wasn't the truth."

Child of innocence, I miss your sunny days
We joyously frolicked in extended plays
Ever since you've left the scene
The streets are lonely, dark and mean
Child of innocence, return to me now
With your simple smile show them how
This world once again can respond to your glance
And heartbeats flutter to the rhythm of your dance
Child of innocence, your elegance, your beauty
Beckons me now beyond the call of duty
Come fly with me far and above
Over the mountains in the land of love
Child of innocence, messenger of joy
You've touched my coração without a ploy
My soul is ablaze with a flagrant fire
To change the world is my deepest desire.
We joyously frolicked in extended plays

Child of innocence, your elegance, your beauty
Beckons me now beyond the call of duty
Come fly with me far and above
Over the mountains in the land of love
Child of innocence, messenger of joy
You've touched my coração without a ploy
My soul is ablaze with a flagrant fire
To change the world is my deepest desire.
You came and changed my life
You Let Me survive
I never felt like this before
It's very perfect mais Than I Thought
I came to This world hopeless,helpless
you Made Me Speechless
I was alone with no friend
you came my friend
Until The end
and never looked for How Much you had to spend
when My fears came
you came and took The shame
you lifted me up In the sky
and Made me fly so high
like a butterfly
cause you're angel In My sky
you opened my heart
Through blocked walls
You Made Me See the light
through Darkness night
You were My dreams
through My fighting In nightmare
I can't explain Much
how I Feel About You
Just Let my feelings come to you
Cause I amor you
yes It's true!!!!!!!!!!
