Tiny Broken Heart

Lyrics

He was just a little farm lad, so busy he'd play
 With his little playmate outside the gate
 He stopped to watch a truck that was parking next door
 At the home of his tiny playmate
 Then he saw his daddy watchin' too
 As the men swiftly walked to the cottage door
 He knew they were strangers that came from the town
 Men he had never seen before
 ♪
 They soon went to work when he heard his daddy say
 "Our neighbours are moving today"
 "Oh No!" he cried, "Dear God don't let it be
 They can't take my sweetheart away"
 I know dad you don't understand
 How a heart so young could conceive a plan
 I'm only seven now but it's just like you say
 Daddy someday I'll be a man
 ♪
 The man who owns the farm where your playmates do live
 He told me it'd have to be this way
 For when your time has come and your work is all done
 That's why they are moving today
 Let us buy the farm so they can stay
 And give them all the toys that your Santa gave
 And give them all my pennies in my little piggy bank
 Pennies that my darlin' helped me save
