Little Joe - Bill Monroe[00:00:00]
What will the birds do mother in the spring[00:00:05]
When they gather crumbs around the door[00:00:08]
Will they fly from the trees half as nice with glee[00:00:12]
Asking why Joe wanders out no more[00:00:17]
What will the kitten do mother all alone[00:00:20]
Will he stop from his frolick for the day[00:00:24]
Will he lie on his rug by the side of my bed[00:00:28]
As he did before I went away[00:00:32]
What will Thomas that old gardener say[00:00:36]
When you ask him for flowers for me[00:00:39]
Will he give you a rose he has tended with care[00:00:43]
The first fairest bloom of the tree[00:00:47]
I seen the tears in his honest old eyes[00:01:07]
But he said it was the wind that brought[00:01:10]
As he gazed on my cheeks growing paler each day[00:01:14]
And his hand went through my hair[00:01:18]
Keep tied mother my poor little dog[00:01:22]
I know he'll mourn for me too[00:01:25]
Keep him when old and useless he grows[00:01:29]
Sleeping the whole summer through[00:01:33]
Show him my coat mother so he'll not forget[00:01:37]
His master who then will be dead[00:01:40]
Just speak to him kindly and often of Joe[00:01:44]
And pat him on his brown shaggy head[00:01:47]
And you dearest mother may miss me for a while[00:02:06]
But in heaven I'll no larger grow[00:02:10]
And any kind angel will know at the gate[00:02:13]
When you ask for your darling little Joe[00:02:17]
