Dear Son.,•
VJhat can I tell the Kid?
vJliat can I say?
I mustn’t worry him,
'cause there'd be hell to pay.
1^11 tell him all the news;
1*11 talk about his Ma.
Hell, I can't cry aloud for him,
bocause after all, I*m his Pa.
Dear Son,,,
Things arc fine, the crop is in,
the cow is fresh again*
Our oats brought in a great pile
and now we*re selling grain.
Eacli dime \ie get goes into bonds
your*rc Ma and I agree
That’s the thing to buy these
days,
the thing that keeps us free.
Dear Son...
That little V/ilson gal you laiev;, is quite a lady nov;,
Savj her just the other day, a pushin’ on r* plov\/.
She says, "Tell Him Hello*' and says to hurry homo.
Its kinda’ tough to go to dances and sit there rJ.1 e.lone.
Dear Son.,.
It seems as though the coionty men are trj.king 'bout a draft
All the youngsters want to figiit; Fighting’s now a craft.
The old farm looks about the sarao, though I’ll admit it’s hard
to do the work you used to do, - but I’ll do it somehow, PARD.
