Story behind the song

song to the old poems 'My Mother's Prayer' by (the old poet) T. C. O'Kane and 'Making A Man' by (the old poet) Nixon Waterman

Lyrics

As I wandered 
'round 
the homestead,
Many a dear, 
familiar spot
Brought back by my 
fading memory
Scenes I seemingly 
forgot.

To the attic 
dark ascending,
Once a source of 
childhood dread;
Peering through the 
spidery cobwebs
There I saw 
my childhood bed!

Quickly I drew it 
from the darkness,
Brushed off the dust 
that lay so long,
When, behold! 
I heard in passing
Strains of a 
familiar song:

Hurry the baby 
as fast as you can,
Hurry him, worry him, 
make him a man!
Off with his diapers, 
on with his pants;
feed him on brainfood, 
and make him advance!

Hustle him soon 
as he's able to walk;
Stuff him in school 
and cram him 
with talk;
Fill his round head 
with square figures 
and facts,
Keep on jamming them 
there 'till there's 
nothing he lacks!

Often sung by 
my dear mother
To me in 
my childhood bed!
"Hush, my dear, 
lie still and slumber;
"Holy angels 
guard thy bed!"

from 
"My Mother's Prayer" 
by T. C. O'Kane
and "Making A Man" 
by Nixon Waterman
