Description
A careful woman I ought to be:

A little girl follows me;

I do not dare to go a stray

For fear she'll go the self-same way.

I cannot once escape her eyes;

What she sees me do, she tries

Like me, she says, she's going to be,

The little girl who follows me.

She thinks that I am good and fine,

Believes in every word of mine;

The base in me she must not see,

The little girl who follows me.

I must remember as I go,

Through summer's sun and winter's snow,

I am building for the years to be,

For a little girl follows me.
