about

This is our version of a true story from the life of author, artist and our friend Marie Peters.  We only changed it a little bit.

lyrics

I’ve got a little red purse
With a tiny golden clasp
And a silky secret pocket
Hidden way in the back
 
I’ve got some money for the bus
And some more for lunch
And some pennies in a packet
Got ‘em all in a bunch
 
  
And I bet that you could find it
If it I lost it
Even though
It’s a teeny tiny little red purse
 
If I fell off a mountain
If I jumped off a cliff
If I drowned in a fountain
If I dove in a ditch

I listened to my mama
When she told me that I must
Always have it with me
Then I’ll always have enough


I got a quarter and a pencil
And photo of my face
Got a letter from my mama
And some numbers just in case
Got a band-aid and a whistle
And a searchlight and a missile
And it’s all in my little red purse
