I raised her frum a baby, Why, I even chose her name, 0' course I '11 see her maybe Now an' then, but not the same As I used to when she 'd meet me At the door three times a day.
An' hug me tight an' greet me.
In her lovin' sort o' way.
She spent the time a-weepin', An' a-pinin' 'way fer Jim, One day we laid her sleepin', In the ground 'long side uv him, She left a note a-givin' Me the little girl to raise.
An' life has been worth livin', She has brightened all my days.
You recollect her mother
...?
Well, some forty years ago, Why, I wuz her big brother, Long before she had a beau, Tdid n't act contrary, When Jim took her fer his bride, Fer he jest worshipped Mary, Till the day the feller died.
I know the man she 's choosin' Came an' won her fair an' square, But still, the love I 'm losin', Makes the future look so bare, You asked me why I 'm sighin' — Well, I told it frum the start, To laugh 'ud jest be lyin', 'Cause it 's lackin' in my heart .
"FATHER AND THE PIANO/' My father is a funny man, He thinks he knows a lot, But mother sez, to tell the truth, It 's little sense he 's got, The other day Mom sez to him : "John, send the tuner 'round, The upright 's got a busted key That won't give out a sound." "Why, goodness me," Pop sez to her, "Is that key all that 's wrong?
