little blossom - billy strings lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, dear, i’m so tired and so lonesome
i wonder why mama don’t come
she told me to close my pretty blue eyes
and when i awoke, she’ll be home

[verse 2]
i guess i’ll go out and find papa
he must’ve stopped in at the store
that great long room filled with bottles
i wish he would go there no more
[verse 3]
sometimes he’s so sick when he comes home
he staggers and falls on the stairs
and once when he came in the parlor
he kicked at my poor little chair

[verse 4]
but i love him, i guess i’ll go find him
i know he will gladly come home
and then it won’t be so lonesome
waiting for mama to come

[verse 5]
“oh, daddy,” she cried when she reached him
her voice ringing out sweet and clear
i knew if i come, i would find you
and now i am glad i am here

[verse 6]
for a moment, the red eyes gazed wildly
into that face sweet and fair
and just as a demon possessed him
he grabbed for the back of a chair

[verse 7]
in a moment, the whole thing was over
the work of his deed was complete
and poor little innocent blossom
lay quivering and crushed at his feet
[verse 8]
he clasped a bright arm to his bosom
and fondled her sweet curly hair
for a moment, the baby’s lips trembled
and then little blossom was dead
