Little Blossom
Oh, dear, I'm feel tired and so lonesome I wonder why mommy don't come She told me to close my pretty blue eyes And when I awoke she'd be home I guess I'll go out and find papa He must have stopped in at the store That great long room filled with bottles I wish he would go there no more 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 But I love him. I guess I'll go find him I know he would gladly come home And then it won't be so lonesome Waiting for mamma to come Oh, daddy, she cried when she reached him Her voice ringing out sweet and clear I knew if I'd come I would find you And now I am glad I am here For a moment the red eyes gazed wildly SongtexteInto that face sweet and fair And just as the demon possessed him He grabbed hold the back of a chair In a moment the whole thing was over The work of his deed was complete And poor little innocent blossom Lay quivering and crust at his feet He clutched [?] And fondled her sweet curly hair For a moment the baby's head trembled And then the poor blossom was dead Aus Songtexte Mania
