Visitors Came To Wichita

Visitors came to Wichita
I was eight, my brother Mike five
Way across Kansas from Liberal
Mike later, was glad to survive!

I was surprised by Aunt Helen
She was quite heavy, I recall 
Mike ended up sleeping with her
Or have nowhere to sleep at all!

In the morning he looked real tired
I asked, "Why are your eyes so red?"
He said, "Because I was fighting,"
"Rolling to her side of the bed!"
