Torn between two Worlds

In the corner by the stairs

is an old rocking chair

that grandma used to sit in

while she did her knit-tin

hush now don’t you cry

we’ll get bye

you and I

sssh don’t cry

hush now go to sleep

it’s grandma’s turn to weep

well her good man has gone

during winter he passed on

he never done her wrong

he always had a song

in his heart a smile in his eye

hush now don’t you cry

we’ll get bye

you and I

sssh don’t cry
