Oh, Jo, my sister, so fine, you're so fine.
Where are you, Sis, time's aflyin', it is flyin'.
I'm looking to find you, you're so hard to find.
You're crossing my head, yes, my mind, my mind.

I'm thinkin' about you, I'm thinkin' so hard.
Wish I could hear from you by book or by card,
By eagle, by pigeon, by crow, or by phone.
How could you leave Sis alone, so alone?

Get out of your chair and think, really think.
Get your hands out of that sink, dirty sink.
Whatever you're doing, don't do it, don't do;
Come think of your sister, she's thinkin' of you.

If I could just get you to come, oh please come
We'd run through the flowers, what fun, oh we'd run.
The fence we'd jump over, we'd find the old pump,
We'd get some well water, we'd dance 'round a stump.

Oh my dear sister, you're cute, yes you're cute.
You're sister and good friend to boot, yes to boot.
I'll share with you all my thoughts, yes my dreams.
We'll giggle, laugh, cry, squeal and scream, yes we'll scream.

I'm sending you pics of my grands, yes the grands.
Don't you love children, my lands, oh my lands!
The little treasures are sweet, they're right sweet.
Weary us from head to our feet, oh poor feet!

Could we do without them? We'd be sad, very sad.
We love them in spite of their good and their bad.
They're all trophies to us, bring us joy, oh great joy!
No matter if they be a girl or a boy.

We love them in sickness, in health, oh in health.
Hate being poor, wish for wealth, oh great wealth
To give them such pretties, good life, a great life;
One filled with joy and not strife, no not strife.

But riches will fail, they won't bring, cannot bring
Blissfulness, joy, make them sing, no not sing.
Just living in Jesus gives them peace, blessed peace.
And gives "grandmothers' hearts" release, sweet release.

Lord bless our children, our grandchildren too.
We lift them up, Lord, give them to you, only you.
To hold them, and keep them, yes guard them each day.
And teach them to walk in Your way, this we pray.
