She’s not a little girl any more, She’s certainly made that clear. “For goodness sake.. I am six or four! Don’t you know that Mama, dear?” “I’m big enough to reach the light, In just about every room. I get all ready for bed at night. I even bring you the broom!” “I brush my teeth every single day And I wash my hands and face. I don’t go in the street when I play And my shoes I try to lace!” “I can jump from the top of the chair, Way down and land on my feet! Mama gets mad when she sees me there, But she thinks I’m kind of sweet..” “My Daddy tells me I’m really smart. Yes sir, golly, I’m no fool! One of these days ago I did start To go to my Sunday school.” … To say she’s not big will make a fuss, So with her we all agree. … But she’s still our little girl to us … And we know, she’s only three! |
