She's back to work again; I'm awful glad; / When she was sick it seemed to me as though / The clocks all got to goin' kind of slow, / And every key she pounds looked kind of sad. / It's tough to have to hear her coughin' so -- / I wish that I could take her cold and she / Would know I took it, and not have to blow / Her nose no more, and be as well as me.
She takes some kind of cough stuff in a spoon, / I seen her lickin' it this morning when / She took a dose and put it down again, / And when the rest went out awhile at noon / I got her spoon and licked it, and it seemed / As though it all was something nice I dreamed.
