A Tiny Broken Heart
He was just a little farm lad so busy at playIn his little play house down by the gateHe stopped to watch a truck that was parking next doorAt the home of his tiny playmate Then he saw his Daddy watching tooAs the man swiftly walked to the cottage doorHe knew they were strangers that come from the townMen he had never seen beforeThey soon were at their work and he heard his Daddy sayOur neighbors are moving todayOh no he cried dear God don't let it beThey can't take my sweetheart awayI know Dad that you don't understandHow a heart so young can conceive a planI'm only seven now but it's just like you saidDad someday I'll be a manThe man who runs the farm where your playmate now livesHe told me it'd have to be this wayFor winter time has come and their work is all doneSo now they are moving awayLet us buy the farm so they can stayGive them all my toys that dear Santa gaveAnd give him the pennies in my little bankPennies that my darling helped me save
