My Pretty Thing
Morning comes
I'm glad to see
time to wake
my pretty thing
sleepy eye's
yawning sigh
wash away the
teary eye's
time to dress
look your best
brush your hair
you make me stare
time to eat
time to pray
thank the Lord
for food today
then it's time to say
good bye
listen to my baby cry
kiss your head
and promise to
hurry back real soon
all day long
I think of you
my little girl
how I love you
tinker bells
pony tails
ice cream cones
toy telephones
almost noon
time to call
baby wish you
didn't fall
wait till quarter
after three
then my smilling face
you'll see
hate to say
good bye to you
little girl
I love you too
all these people
bossing me
can't wait to see
the end of day
then it comes
before I know
the end of day
time to go home
can't wait to see
my pretty thing
can't wait to swing
her on her swing
but first I'll find
her a surprise
I want to see
her smilling eye's
then I see
the Greatest thing
my baby running
straight to me
then I hand her
the surprise
a little doll
with big brown eye's
here you are
my pretty thing
a little doll
to love you too
just the thing I
want for you
what you give me
i want for you
then you look into
her eye's
almost made me
want to cry
little girl come
and eat
then I'll give you
something sweet
come lets go
to the park
let's go home
before it's dark
then we'll wash your
toe's and hands
send you off
to sleepy land
just before we'll
kneel and pray
God bless your
little heart today
A story and
a lullabye
kiss your head
and say good night
(6-7-98)
