Sister Philomena And Me

SISTER PHILOMENA AND ME In case you didn't know her You are in for a treat I want you to meet a lady That was truly so very sweet. She wasn't just any lady though For if you had known her you'd know You would adore her just as I did Even more I did love her so. Every single get-together we'd have I found a time out of the day To sit beside her and just listen It couldn't be any other way. As a little girl I had big visions Of me in a flowing dress Regal I would be, of course With a huge cross upon my chest. But, alas, I was not catholic and so It didn't happen to me So when I married into this family I met her delightfully. Sitting by her side when she had to leave It just didn't seem long enough For I didn't have her for years and years And so, my friend, it was very tough. But someday I hope we meet again Our visits once more will be Long and sweet and lovely Ah yes, just Sister Philomena and me. Marilyn Lott
