Ladies of the Canyon |
| Trina wears her wampum beads |
| She fills her drawing book with line |
| Sewing lace on widow’s weeds |
| And filagree on leaf and vine |
| Vine and leaf are filagree |
| And her coat’s a second-hand one |
| Sewn in antique luxury |
| She is a lady of the canyon |
| Annie sits you down to eat |
| She always makes you welcome in |
| Cats and babies around her feet |
| And all are fat and none are thin |
| None are thin and all are fat |
| She may bake some brownies today |
| Saying you are welcome back |
| She is another canyon lady |
| Esterella, circus girl |
| Comes wrapped in songs and gypsy shawls |
| Songs like tiny hammers hurled |
| At bevelled mirrors in empty halls |
| Empty halls and bevelled mirrors |
| Sailing seas and climbing banyans |
| Come out for a visit here |
| To be a lady of the canyon |
| Trina takes her paints and thread |
| And weaves a pattern all her own |
| Annie bakes her cakes and bread |
| And gathers flowers for her home |
| For her home, she gathers flowers |
| And Esterella, dear companion |
| Colours up the sunshine hours |
| Pouring music down the canyon |
| Colouring the sunshine hours |
| They are the ladies of the canyon |
