Come for some tea, spend some time with me.
Aunt Annie's tea, was not always free.
Though she made it especially for me.
She was such a host, with her sweet rolls and toast.
But can you fix my fence post, 10 minutes at most.
That door squeaks and my grass needs a cut.
What about my window it cannot be shut.
Water the trees, pull out the weeds.
Plant my garden with all these seeds.
now sweep off the front porch and we will have lunch.
I think your hungry that's my hunch.
Ice tea, sweet rolls and cinnamon toast of course.
Better have enough for a horse.
