Betty came by on her way
Said she had a word to say
About things today
And fallen leaves.
Said she hadnt heard the news
Hadnt had the time to choose
A way to lose
But she believes.
Going to see the river man
Going to tell him all I can
About the plan
For lilac time.
If he tells me all he knows
About the way his river flows
And all night shows
In summertime.
Betty said she prayed today
