Sometimes my burden seems more than I can bear
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there

All that and more and then some
They walk among the stately trees
They know the secrets of the breeze

His mama sure was proud of him!
He stood straight and tall in his uniform and all
His mama’s face broke out all in a grin
