Using chiral symmetry we investigate the leading SU(3) violation in the complete set of quark twist-3 light-cone distribution functions of the pion, kaon, and eta, including the two-parton distributions {phi}{sub M}{sup p}, {phi}{sub M}{sup {sigma}}, and the three-parton distribution {phi}{sub M}{sup 3}. It is shown that terms nonanalytic in the quark masses do not affect the shape, and only appear in the normalization constants. Predictive power is retained including the leading analytic m{sub q} operators. With the symmetry violating corrections we derive useful model-independent relations between {phi}{sub {pi}}{sup p,{sigma},3}, {phi}{sub {eta}}{sup p,{sigma},3}, {phi}{sub K{sup +},K{sup 0}}{sup p,{sigma},3}, and {phi}{sub K{sup 0},K{sup -}}{sup p,{sigma},3}. We also comment on the calculations of the moments of these distributions using lattice QCD and light-cone sum rules.
