My Cousin Sweet Bea

I am on top of the world said my cousin Sweet Bea
She was every bit as creative as I knew her to be.
I have tamed an ostrich and we are on the go.
On which planet we land, who will ever know?

We fly through the night among the planets and stars.
You could never again coax me to drive those plain cars.
I am on top of the world, and I love my life.
I will never be tied down to be anyone’s wife.

Sweet Bea loves herself, and that is most important of all. Some folks just can't be tied down. They are too adventurous, too independent, and just too marvelous!
