When I Was a Wean

When i was a wean we got everything free.from first bras to high heel shoes. ma mammy thought she had the cream of the crop, five braw weans what a jaw drop. dad wasn't working, money was tight, out came the sewing machine, she peddled all night.we awoke in the morning new togs to put on, no designer labels but she was dead on. we would fly up the stairs to try out our gear,kick our brother out the way,and give him a thick ear. Back we would come, twirl for ma mammy,our pals would say yous'e are really jammy.they pulled at our clothes looking for a tag,but our clothes you wouldn't find in no mag.
