She fears to die
It comes too soon
It makes her cry
Had she thought
The problem thru
And made her peace
That’s all you do
She brought up five
In a council home
Since they’ve gone
She been alone
Aunt Madge said
My Dad Joe
Did bad things
And no one knows
Aunt Madge said
Some of you
Alive today
Will not see death
Lord Jesus say
He’s a good man that Jesus
The world goes on
Care, don’t care
As if Aunt Madge
Wasn’t there
My Aunt Madge was very lonely
That was easy to tell
She had not really had a life
She had not lived that well
Of this I’m sure
She lived her life
Behind closed doors
As a council wife
Aunt Madge said
She fears to die
It comes too soon
It makes her cry
Oh, my aunt Madge
Oh, my poor aunt Madge
