DOWN WARSAW WAY
- By: G. Van Stephens
'Twas in the days of peace at home,
Eight years, six months, they say,
Since once we made our minds to roarriv
To a pleasant place Down Warsaw Way.
So many things have taken place,
Since we came down that day:
The world's been in a bloody race,
Which we all felt Down Warsaw Way.
Things have happened here and there,
In Church, in State - - in night, in day,
Clouds hung low; then skies were fair,
Since first we came Down Warsaw Way.
Our family life a change has seen:
Daughters have married happy and gay,
Children born all girls they've been,
Since first we came Down Warsaw Way.
We've seen a lot of things well done;
Others will follow let us pray.
We've tried with faith a race to run,
Since first we came Down Warsaw Way.
The folks have been so good and kind,
To whom we want to truly say,
Thank you from our hearts and minds,
To those we love Down Warsaw Way.
