Work rating: Low


Tomps `ud allus haf to say     Somepin` `bout "his mother`s way."--   _He_ lived hard-like--never jined   Any church of any kind.--   "It was Mother`s way," says he,   "To be good enough fer _me_   And her too,--and certinly     Lord has heerd _her_ pray!"   Propped up on his dyin` bed,--   "Shore as Heaven`s overhead,   I`m a-goin` there," he said---     "It was Mother`s way."
