Ma Johnson does the laundry
on her front yard porch
Mrs Harris cuts the roses
while her husband mowes the lawn
and it’s feeling like my day has just begun

I’m standing on the sidewalk,
will they understand?
when I’m smilimg at their faces
with her picture in my hand
yes,I want them all to see that she loves me
will it show that I’m the one who set her free?

Dad Morgan’s in the driveway
tuning up his car
Miss Perkins has a shovel,
and it’s getting quite bizzare
and I hope she doesn’t dig too deep today
well,I know soon they’ll find her anyway....
