The Door

Little sister of mine fetch me some water
I am thirsty, but my legs they cannot move
Oh Father of Fathers, our mother’s groin' old and weak
Little sister of mine fetch me some water
Little sister of mine bake us some bread
I hunger for food, but my legs they cannot move
Oh Father of Fathers, our mother’s growin' old and weak
Little sister of mine abke us some bread
Push me and pull me away, away to the door
Little sister of mine, younger than I
My weight is heavy, hard to carry am I
Oh Father of Fathers, our mother’s growin' old and weak
Little sister of mine, younger than I
Push me and pull me away, away to the door
I’ll wear my wongs some day, and you a crown
And we’ll walk hand in hand on hallowed ground
Yes, we’ll be together today and forevermore
Little sister of mine, help me to the door
Push me and pull me away, away to the door
Push me and pull me away, away to the door
To the door…
