"Daddy Just One More Throw Today,
I Think I’m Getting Strong.
Daddy Just Five More Minutes Please,
I Swear You Counted Wrong."

Long Days, Short Years
Boots At The Back Door, Mud In Hall
And A Couple Good Dings In The Bedroom Wall
Coffee Went Cold In My Cup Again
And I Don’t Know What Today Is

These Are The Days Of Sun And Gold And Silver—Reddest Wine
They Won’t Ever Come Again
Wring Them Out And Don’t You Even Leave A Drop Behind
Drain The Cup Down ’Til It’s Dry
Drain The Cup Down ’Til It’s Dry

“Grandpa Come See What I Drew Today
It’s Grandma, You, And Me.”
