The Little Chap that Follows Me
A little man follows me.
I do not dare go astray
For fear he'll go the self-same way.
I cannot once escape his eyes
Whatever he sees me do, he tries.
Like me, he says he's going to be
The little chap that follows me.
He thinks that I am good and fine
Believes in every word of mine.
The bad in me, he must not see
My life to him must example be.
I must remember as I go
Through summer's sun and winter's snow.
I'm building for the years to be
For that little chap that follows me.
