William And Wanda
Cody Jinks
William, where you been?
I've been waiting on you since only God knows when
William, come on in
There's so much to do, so glad to see you again
I haven't been worried so much as I've been anxious
I haven't been sad, for the reason in the rhyme
I haven't been cryin', that's somethin' that don't happen
I believed you'd make it here in your sweet time
William, I have so much to say
I started us a garden when I got here that June day
William, c'mon this way
Meet our little boy that died on his birthday
We haven't been worried so much as we've been anxious
We haven't been sad, for the reason in the rhyme
We haven't been cryin', that's something that don't happen
I told em' you'd be up here some sweet time
Wanda, quit pickin' at me
I've been running late since 1953
Wanda, slow down, just be
Hold my hand while I rock this boy to sleep
I haven't been worried so much as I've been anxious
I've been sad but there's reason in the rhyme
And I've done a lot of crying, that's something just happens
I just hoped I'd make it up here some sweet time
