Oh, Jerusha
Poor Jerusha
*
Sweet little one, what have they done to you?
And what gives them the right?
All you ever wanted was to be loved
And all you ever got was pain
*
I know it must seem that you can't go on
And nothing's ever gonna be the same
As the way it used to be when you were so young
Why'd this have to be your life?
*
Oh, Jerusha
Poor Jerusha
*
Sweet little one, why'd you have to be the one
To see the look of death upon her face
Couldn't they have waited just a little bit longer now?
Why'd they choose now to leave?
*
So little time has gone by in your life
With so much to grieve
Now that she is gone what will you do?
How will you find your place?
*
Oh, Jerusha
Poor Jerusha
