Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe

Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe By Valerie Odom March 5, 2017 Eeny, meeny, miny, moe Catch a tiger by the toe If he hollers let him go, Eeny, meeny, miny, moe My mother told me To pick the very best one And you are not it Eeny, meeny, miny, moe By day I have to put on a show Just sit and smile and not say no While they give me their opinions on my afro Eeny, meeny, miny, moe By night my sorrows start to glow My rhythmic notes begin to flow And form into material They tried to tell me Keep your head high And you will not fall
