The baby between so fair,

she be, so youthful of earthly two,

a battle amongst the many fought,

I still must cradle you, ~~~~~

Tressled hair of lily blond,

deep sapphire eyes,

Dare a knock of strangers foot,

disturb your youthful sighs,

~~~~~ Katie Lynn in which I hold,

she lurks where you sleep free,

there came a law for when she's found,

she's then able to see, ~~~~~

Another battle dear gentle child,

for three days you leave my sight,

what will she really know, will she rock you in thee night, ~~~~~

Oh dear one, .... she lurks, upon my home, with you in hand,

said she was your mother,

but to mar you was her plan,

~~~~~ Blackened eyes and broken ribs,

scars on your tiny face,

both your tiny legs broken, these tears I can retrace,

 ~~~~~ What kind of law for thee is justice,

~~~~~ for baby only two ~~~~~ ,

no more you leave my side, my sweet,

I grant that wish for you,

~~~~~ Your voice, sweet one ..... cries out again,

another battle we must fight,

change the laws for sweet Katie Lynn,

for her I'd give my life! ~~~~~
