Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Legacy of Women
if you found out where I can get a copy of the tape I would love to own it. The rest of the song goes

Not so very long ago, just before she died
I heard that Betty Grubbs had called Ruth Perry to her side
she said dig those bulbs I planted up
divide and pass em round
So my flowers will be bloomin after I am in the ground

Ruth's voice was still about to break with grief when she said
"Ann if you'd like to have some tulips and some irises you can.
well I'm gonna plant em round my house so that after I'm long gone
the flowers Betty loved and mine and Georgannes will live on.

(course)
