Barbara Jean

Tell you a little story about how I got my attitude

He was energetic, creative and funThey’d never seen anything Like the flying Frenchman

General store, post office, trucking and moreHe did it all and we had it all;

I was spoiled for sureSilence! my baby stops breathingAccident! Mom gone; Dad broken

Explosion! my big strong beautiful boyFamily times are everything; I want as much as I can get

Friends keep me moving; my safety netBill is my rock; I lean on him each day

Yes, some of it was tragic But some of it was magic

And it was a good life - all the way
