Little Liza

2013

Lyrics

Oh my little Liza
Oh what tortures you?
What more can I do?

Oh you little wild thing
I got no more tricks to try
I've run out of lullabies
I can't sing no more tonight

Oh my little babe now
No need to cry so loud
I'm all you got in this world

No one else hears you crying
No one to wipe your tears
You live to die and that's all there is
Your mother's dead and gone from this world

No more drinking
mother's milk
No more swearing
Oh Lord I don't think I'll go on!

Notes

This song is pure fiction. A very sad image came to me of a widower struggling to quiet his newborn after her mother had passed away.
