'Your boy is not stupid, miss.

He does not learn easily

But he gets there bit by bit, miss.'

So he bit his lip

And said 'No more for a while.'



'cause he knew

A boy's best friend is his mother.

'A man with money

To spend has no lack of friends, honey.'

And he bit his lip.

And he was afraid

It was one of those beautiful

Spring mornings that made

You feel life was really worth living.

With the honest light of day on the world.
