A childlike grace
I wish you could'veseen her face
How brightthat sunflower shone!
With a child like gracerunning all around this place
It should be said, "my,how you've grown..."

She was onlythree when she taught herself to read
"i donot like them, sam i am"
She taughtus how to love
We learned so muchbut not enough
I'm sure that's when we learned togive a damn

She will graceour lives no more
Shewas only four
She died beforeshe was five
Now it's agrave mistake
God in his wisdommakes
Whatdoes he care?
Hefashioned us from clay

Lay medown in a bed of sunflowers
Overgrown andwild
I've survived my ownchild
Seethe fields and meadows crying, yeah
Proud dandelionheads turned grey
Now the windin a puff blows you away...

Mary hada baby, yeah
Maryhad a baby, yeah
Mary had ababy, yeah
Mary had a baby,yeah
