My Darlin Husband

My husband sez I am smart, thets whi he marred me,
He nose what he’s takin about, A&M giv him a degree.
When we do email, I hav to correct his spellin,
I don’t know wher he lernd to spell, ther jest ain’t no tellin.

He gives me a diagram headache, correctin him all the time,
If he’d jest listen to me, Id giv him a yankee dime.
I say, lets rite yur kids a letter, I know jest what to do,
We owe them one, Its ben long overdew.

Going to tel them we went up Dallus wey,
Went to sea the grankid, sat and watchd her play.
Her mom give me some flours, strait out of her garden growed,
I was mitey proud to git them, loaded the kar and hit the rode.

We heded for home, got on a fancy hiway,
Talked about the fun we had and how we spent the day.
He said, “Do I turn here or go strait ahed?”
I told him to watch wher he was goin or we’d both be dead.

I think weir goin to Huston, I can hardly wate,
Weir goin to get on email and set up a date.
I no I can find the house, easy as can be,
Cause he says I am so smart and he’s so proud of me.

Abigail's Song

Entering into the realms of glory, drifting away from the silky shroud
Abigail wraps her wings around her, carrying her, softly as a cloud.
No fear will she feel as she journeys along
For the angel will be singing “Abigail’s Song."

Precious Lord, this child I bring to you, take her hand
She has done her work on earth and ‘oer the mighty land.
I sang a song for her as we floated through the light
Take her hand precious Lord as she travels in her flight.

Abigail sang, “Come to the light. ‘Tis shining in this place
Sweetly the light has shown upon your precious face.
Once you were blind but now you can see
The light of the Lord has shined upon thee."

My Friend

I was going to write a song for you about my life
To tell you about some happiness and some strife
Then I remembered that I told you nearly everyday
In the way I handled my work and in my play

Perhaps I wasn’t smiling and you knew that I was sad
Or maybe I had a mean look, you knew that I was mad
It could have been a song, especially for you to hear
Trying to say, you are my friend, I like having you near

To tell you that I love you in many special ways
To say I thank you for your prayers on all those days
I was going to put it in a song, a message loud and clear
But you had already seen my life, you didn’t have to hear.
