HER SISTER KATE
Don't you talk now, just you wait!!!!!!!
He wants to tell you a story about her SISTER KATE!!
THEY all knew this even from the start,
You've always been so keen and smart!!
Let them look back, please, if they might go...
A picture in her mind that she may show.
Dad was way back in the field with his plow...
Momma wanted to help him, the best she knew how...
Scrambled good eggs and bread she did make...
This snack to the field to Dad, they were to take!!!!!
THEY sampled the egg, OH, it was very good!!!!!!!
Try to save some for Dad, if only they could...
Them two children, empty dish in their hand...
Gave bread and water to their hungry working man...
He drank his cool water and ate the bread...
Not an unkind word, just wiped sweat off his head!!!
Now KATE, it puzzles her why this was your wish!!
"IT's gon-na rain, Betty, now you bring back the dish!"
Crying she carried the dish back home, she did beg...
Love, please don't let Daddy tell Ma they ate up his egg!
