MY LITTLE INDIAN
I MET MY LITTLE INDIAN
ON MY WAY HOME FROM SCHOOL
AS THE CLOUDS BURST
AND THE THUNDER ROARED
WE GATHERED TOGETHER IN
TIGHT LITTLE HOARD
WELL I GRABBED HIM
WHEN THE LIGHTENING FLASHED
AND HE HELD ME JUST A LITTLE TO TIGHT
WE KNEW RIGHT THEN
IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
HE SMILED AT ME
AND I SMILED AT HIM
AND WE KNEW RIGHT THEN
IT WOULD NEVER BE
THE SAME AGAIN
HE TOOK MY HAND,
AND HE WALKED ME HOME
AND SAID HELLO TO MY DAD
AS WE MET HIM AT THE
OLD GATE POST
HE SHOOK HANDS WITH DAD
WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE
AND SAID HELLO SIR
WERE JUST A LITTLE BIT LATE
BUT I CAN EXPLAIN
DAD SET DOWN WITH AN OPEN EAR
WANTING TO HEAR WHERE HIS GIRL HAD BEEN
WELL MY LITTLE INDIAN BEGAN TO SHAKE
THEN MY DAD HAD TO LAUGH
HE KNEW IT WAS A MISTAKE
HE SAID STAY TO SUPPER SON
MAYBE WE CAN BE FRIENDS
WELL NOW MY LITTLE INDIAN
NEVER LEFT THERE AGAIN
AND WE BEEN TOGETHER EVER SINCE
HE CARRIED MY BOOKS
AS WE WALKED TO SCHOOL
WE TALKED OF LOVE
AND A CHILD OR TWO
WE EVEN DISCUSSED THE GOLDEN RULE
NOW MY DAD HAD TAUGHT HIM
THE GREAT GOLDEN RULE
HE'S A GROWN MAN NOW IN A DR'S SCHOOL
WORKING SO DILIGENTLY
WITH HIS MEDICAL TOOLS
WELL WE STILL REMEMBER THE STORM THAT DAY, AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, NIKKI SAY'S LET'S GO PLAY!!!
