And sorto' eechin' all the time

To tell 'em how I love 'em.—

Sich folks, you know, I jes love so

I wouldn't live without 'em,

Er couldn't even drap asleep

But what I dreamp' about 'em,—

And ef we minded God, I guess

We'd all love one-another

Jes like one fam'bly,—me and Pap

And Madaline and Mother.
