The finest
milliner in
Theberton
She would never walk,
she would always run
As heroes go, she's my only one
For all these years
With money saved and a made -up mind
She left middle school behind
in a pretty dress that she designed when she was
just thirteen.
She took her needle and began to sew
Perfect stitch, row af ter row,
ended her work in the royal show.
She was just 14.
First place rib bons, one, two, three,
she took them to the boss of the mill and ring.
It was 1933, she was just 14
Now I say, now I pray
What will I do when you're gone?
You are the strength when
people say I must be strong
And I think of you every day
I know your hands, I hear your voice
I see your smiling face
Tell me all your stories now
Tell me three more times,
I want to know every word of your life
The finest milliner in
Theberton
She made hats for the lucky ones
In my heart she will always run
you
