Asa & Papaw
My name is Asa and I try to be good But sometimes I get into trouble When Daddy threatens to tan my hide I run to Papaw's on the double My Papaw is my very best friend And tells me to mind my Dad I want to do just what he says Then try harder not to be bad I love to go to Papaw's house Together, we have such fun We used to play catch out in the yard But now Papaw can hardly run We sit on the porch in rocking chairs And he always has a tale to tell Sometimes he makes them up, I know But his stories are really swell Papaw has a great big garden In the field down by the creek He lets me go there with him A couple of times a week He always wears his big straw hat And suspenders that are very red I try to walk and talk like him And remember thing's he's said When I have an accident with my bike Papaw fixes it and I'm a pest He laughs and whistles while he works Then I ride while he takes a rest I love my Papaw so very much I wish he could ride a bike like me He sits and watches while I have fun 'Cause he's not as young as he used to be When my Papaw goes up to Heaven It will nearly break my heart I'll never have another friend as good As my Papaw's been from the start Kathleen McCoy Eldridge© May 7, 2006 All Rights Reserved
