First Line: Our little ones demand us
Last Line: "at the ""come to order!"" call."
Subject(s): Clubs (associations); Mothers
Our little ones demand us,
We mother them at home;
We've time for but a look-in
When club days come.
Our mothers mothered us,
But now may lonely be,
Although they're busy mothering
A whole community.
Soon our clinging children
Older will be grown;
Then hand in hand with mother
We'll mother all the town.
Oh, sisters of our club life,
We need each other all!
Our hearts grow warmer, happier,
At the "Come to order!" call.
