Lands Sake!

Lorna



Mother McCree!

Put the chicken in the coop

Tie up the old cow

And get the horses in the barn

There's gonna be a storm

It was telt to me

And while I'm boarding winders ma

You hunker the kids

In the cellar

We can't miss a trick

Or we'll likely be blown down valley

Spread all over this here county

So let's just keep our heads down

Like we done before

And sit and wait for what's in store

We'll be all right you'll see

Cause that's the kind of hairpins

That we be

    Standing ovation here Lorna. 👏 I could even hear Dylan singing this in my head. And I think he'd love it too. 👍

      Oh lordy - love the vernacular, Lorna. Are You hunkered down OK? Roof bolted to mainframe?
