The Lost Grandchild's Plea

Lost on the river

Dark is the night

I wish there was a time Miss Audrey could hold Katie's hand

Say darlin' girl, Grandmother's listening

You've got power within

I wish there was a place Hank couldn't know

Sambo understands

I too may be of good intentions

But can get out of hand

I wish there was a time Miss Audrey could hold Katie's hand

Say darlin' girl, Grandmother's here to help you with your brand

Oh, I'm only kidding, Ma, do you feel my ear?

I am your friend

Hey T-BOB girl, don't you know I've

Watched you since the day that you began?

From our hilltop mansion porch in heaven

Where your granddaddy shoots cans

I wish there was a place Hank couldn't know

Sambo understands

I too may be of good intentions

But can get out of hand

And ain't you proud that boy Bocephus became such a great man?

Sambo, son, I'll have your daddy know that I'm his biggest fan

And keep on truckin' through your trials

You're cursed but blessed beyond comprehend

I wish there was a time Miss Audrey could hold Katie's hand
