Mother's Music Composition Book

 This is a music composition book that Mother used.  She wrote in it sort of at the height of her illness.  Mother wrote a lot during that time and I am sorry to say that much of it is lost.  However, I treasure what we do have.  I am going to give you the words to a couple of songs in the notebook here.  

"Can You Look Me In The Eye"

Can you look me in the eye as I send my boy to die for you?
He said "Mama I'll be back."
And he bore a heavy pack for all , for you.
You have freedom to rebel because someone went thru hell.
Gave his live to guard it well for you
Can you look me in the eye as I send my boy to die for you
He said "Mama I'll be back"
And he bore a heravy pack all you.
I saw a man the other day
His face smiled like a wreath
It didn't seem to matter much
That he had no teeth.
