[00:00.00]Little Blossom - Dolly Parton
[00:07.06]Oh dear I'm so tired and so lonesome
[00:12.49]I wonder why mommy don't come
[00:18.05]She told me to shut up my blue eyes
[00:23.79]And before I woke up she'd be home
[00:29.42]She said she was going to see Grandma
[00:34.85]Who lives by the river so wide
[00:40.68]And I guess my mommy's feeling bad
[00:45.93]And perhaps she won't be home tonight
[00:51.81]So I guess I'll go down and meet daddy
[00:57.45]Perhaps he has stopped at the store
[01:03.20]It's a great big store full of bottles
[01:08.75]And I wish he wouldn't go there anymore
[01:14.30]So out in the night with the baby
[01:19.93]Her little heart beating with pride
[01:25.55]'Til her tired feet entered the gin palace
[01:31.05]With music all radiant with light
[01:36.55]Oh daddy she cried as she reached him
[01:42.23]I think that the music's so sweet
[01:47.80]But it's almost suppertime daddy
[01:53.30]Little blossom wants something to eat
[01:58.98]A moment his blurred eyes gazed wildly
[02:04.48]Down into her face sweet and fair
[02:10.29]And as the demon possessed him
[02:15.82]He grasped at the back of a chair
[02:21.34]A moment a second was over
[02:26.94]He lifted her fair golden head
[02:32.47]A moment the baby's left trembled
[02:38.09]Then poor little blossom was dead
