American Old Time Song Lyrics: 12 Little Eva To Her Papa
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 12
LITTLE EVA TO HER PAPA.
When your daughter's taken away,
And your heart is filled with care;
When with angels I shall pray
For your peace and comfort here;
Shall poor Uncle Tom be free?
Papa, promise this to me.
When your little Eva's there,
Robed like those in spotless white;
And the conquering palm I bear,
Blessed with love and heaven's light;
Shall poor Uncle Tom be free?
Papa, promise this to me.
Wife and children, send him near.
When for ever I am gone;
Papa, check the falling tear,
Think upon my dying song;
Uncle Tom, oh, make him free.
Papa, do for me, for me.
