Deep in the summer
when the grass is high
I long to take a drive
Down the natchez trace
To see her in the glow
of that warm stove light
Pushing roux across the bottom
Of that le cruset
She tells me straight but not to worry
There’s more to time than just the hurry
Slow it down for a minute
in Mama’s Kitchen
Every hungry mouth is welcome
To those warm ripe tomatoes
Cut straight from the vine
On that hand-me-down table cloth
Laid out and freshly ironed
When the world is on your back
Taking more than its giving
There’s always a place
And a plate for every child
In Mama’s Kitchen
When there’s flour on the door knobs
And not a pot left clean
She’ll say just leave the dishes
Come sit and chat with me
This road to love is narrow
But if you walk it you will find
There’s beauty in open hands
And magic hidden in the hidden life
She tells me straight but not to worry
There’s more to time than just the hurry
Slow it down for a minute
in Mama’s Kitchen
Every hungry mouth is welcome
To those warm ripe tomatoes
Cut straight from the vine
On that hand-me-down table cloth
Laid out and freshly ironed
When the world is on your back
Taking more than its giving
There’s always a place
And a plate for every child
In Mama’s Kitchen
Those handwritten receipts
Sent in the mail to me
Though the words have faded now
When I’m cook I’m back with her
In
Mama’s Kitchen
So bring your hungry heart, it’s welcome
There’s jars of pickled okra
Gumbo and warm bread
This bottle of chilled white wine
Tastes better with a friend
When the world is on your back
Taking more than its giving
There’s always a place
So come inside
To Mama’s Kitchen

I Will Fly

I can fly
I can fly over the rainbow
just like those blue birds I can fly
and I don't need a wizard or ruby slippers
to take me as high as I like
Oh how far I can go
I'm my own 'no place like home'
I'm made for adventure to worlds unknown
somewhere beyond the rainbow
so
I will fly
I will fly over the rainbow
just like those bluebirds I will fly
and I don't need a wizard or ruby slippers
to take me as high as I like
to take me as high as I like
