Nana

Today is Nana's Birthday. She would of been 62. 

Nana LOVED the water. She was the one who taught me how to swim. Did you know that Grandpa can not swim?

Nana would sing us a song called barges. She had a wonderful voice. She would sing so loud in church I use to be embarrassed. I which I encouraged her to sing more.

Verse One:
Out of my window lookin in the night
I can see the barges' flickering light.
Silently flows the river to sea,
and the barges too go silently.

Chorus:
Barges, I would like to go with you,
I would like to sail the ocean blue.
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with priates brave and bold?

Verse Two:
Out of my window lookin in the night,
I can see the barges' flickering light.
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red,
in the night they signal far ahead.

Chorus

Verse Three:
Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering light.
Now is the time when I will soon be gone,
And I'll sail with barges on and on.

Chorus
