Tomps 'ud allus haf to say
Somepin' 'bout "his mother's way. " --
_He_ lived hard-like -- never jined
Any church of any kind. --
"It was Mother's way," says he,
"To be good enough fer _me_
And her too, -- and certinly
Lord has heerd _her_ pray!"
Propped up on his dyin' bed, --
"Shore as Heaven's overhead,
I'm a-goin' there," he said -- -
"It was Mother's way. "
