Hapaw Frank
I hear the Preacher man say,"We're gathered here today;
to honor a man, a great man...till death stole him away on a swift hand."
I begin to remember how he helped make me, me.
How he made me into this young woman you see.
He put a glow in my smile and joy in my heart...
as long as I have my memory we'll never be apart.
I hear the Preacher man say,"We're gathered here today;
to honor a man, a great man...till death stole him away on a swift hand."
I begin to remember how that man put a twinkle in my eye...
With a faint smile and tearful good bye;
I pray to God then i give thanks
quietly under my breath i say "I Love You Hapaw Frank"
I love your Hapaw Frank may you be singing with the angels.
