she took her own life by way of a rope
on a shearing shed rafter she hung
with life's stresses she couldn't cope
no oxygen present in either lung
this is what her daughter Emma found
on a shearing shed rafter she hung
much sadness and shock twas around
her depressive condition she did hide
this is what her daughter Emma found
Jean decided to take a suicide ride
ever so devastated were her kith and kin
her depressive condition she did hide
the air of life is a vapor so thin
one should be thinking of existing
ever so devastated were her kith and kin
on a death ticket Jean did her traveling
one should be thinking of existing
she took her own life by way of a rope
with life's stresses she couldn't cope
