Oh mammy!
It's lunch time already
Debson's house are set
At the family table
For dinner is about to be served
Oh mammy, what took your time?
I thought the market is near
Mammy what kept you that long?
Thought your words never slipped
Why now?
Mammy should we fill the kettle for you?
Should we fetch the fire?
I can defroze the beef
If am permitted
Come quickly
Come quickly
Mammy, should we share the apples?
Cathe said we should go visit
To the Debson's house
Mammy should we?
Eeehn mammy?
Shouldn't we?
Because I know
You are almost home
Robinson, wont you go?
Wont you come along?
You know
Maybe she met a long time friend
At the market square
Who knows wether she lost her purse
Or missed the last train home.
