The Key

 

When I as but a little boy

And went to school every day

My speech was slow and words broken

I was slow to learn my letters

Quick to learns of the cruel

I looked to the end of day

When I could go to my home

Where no one would mock

And I could have peace

Go to door

And take out my key

Open the door

To the dark and quiet

An empty house where I was free

Where no one would mock

Where no one was mean

Till mother came home

And then I would hide
