Song of the Housewife

I pour the water I fill the basket I push the button On the coffee pot Uniforms in the wash Socks in the dryer Dishes are washed Floors are swept The bed has been made Dinner is cooking Kids are outside Homework is done You come home From a long day's toil Hungry and tired, Dirty and sore You see the dinner, the coffee The clean socks and floors And your heart is at peace Your mind can rest easy For the love that I give Through the work of my hands Speaks louder than any words Ever could
