Have you read Treasure Island yet
Unit 8 Section B 2a-2e
A little baby told God
Hey young kinda scared don’t really know if I wanna go down there
Because from here it looks like a little blue ball
But that’s a great big place and I’m so small
Why can’t I just stay here with you
Did I make you mad don’t you want me too
God said oh child of course I do
There’s somebody special waiting for you
So hush now baby don’t you cry
Cause there’s someone down there waiting who’s only goal in life
Is making you sure you’re always going to be alright
A loving angel tender tough and strong
It’s almost time to go and meet your mom
You’ll never have a better friend
Or a warmer touch to tuck you in
She’ll kiss your bruises your bumps and scrapes
And anytime you hurt her heart’s gonna break
