Are the Dallas Youth Auxiliary
4
Quote: "Founded when Catholics wouldn't dream of your job"¦"
5
That's the slogan our Daddy
6
Suggested for the welcome poster
7
He tore in two
8
Then he locked us in the garden shed
9
Said, "Come out when you're not communists!"
10
Quote: "At least you're not all lesbians like that Quaker next door."
11
Ruth said: "How could we be?
12
When Nixon is the Dick for us three"¦"
13
He let us out!
14
We stole his keys
15
After Bethany
16
Took a shovel to his knees
17
Quote: "Take the wheel, I'll hit the gas "“ off to the New Frontier"¦"
18
We left Daddy crawling
19
Across the front lawn - in our side-view mirror
20
Was the paperboy running mad, calling out, screaming out for a ride
21
And we're taking off
22
While you're touching down, down, down
23
Hearts and flags a flutter
24
Thighs "˜ll turn to butter
25
at Love Field
26
We jumped the curb of the parking lot
27
Ran to the tarmac, cut through the mob
28
Quote: "Peel that old bag from the fence, she's not long for this world!"
29
And there was your smile,
30
like a gift behind the birthday wrapping
31
You took our hands
32
And our saddle shoes left the ground
33
Young debutantes over the crowd
34
Horn-rimmed glasses turned reflecting
35
On a thousand days of waiting
36
Teenage hearts in palpitation
37
Coming down from expectation
38
Cigarettes all "˜round
39
Then the blue rinse in the floral dress
40
Tore us off the chain link fence
41
Shook hands with the President, her fist full of our hair
42
On tip-toes and waving
43
Quote: "We hope your stay is breath-taking!"
44
It sure was for
45
Me
46
My sisters Ruth and Bethany
47
Of the Dallas Youth Auxiliary
48
Quote: "Founded when misery couldn't hold down a job."
49
Returned to the car to find
50
Behind a crutch pointed like a rifle,
51
Our daddy saying,
52
"Gotcha, girls"¦
53
I gotcha girls"¦
54
I gotcha girls"¦
55
I gotcha girls"¦
56
"¦Pow"¦
57
"¦Pow"¦
58
"¦Pow"¦
