A Letter from Home
lis an ancient phrase that you often
hear,
From a man inclined to roam,
When good luck gives his cause to
cheer:
Like money sent from home"
Money, tbs true, makes a man rejoice.
And for me, I'm sure it would,
But after all, if you had your choice,
Why letter would do more good.
For word from home sticks in your
heart,
And you know with love twas sent,
But you and the money soon must
part,
For it's not long till it's spent.
