EASTER
ON EASTER MORNING, THE HEAD OF THE HOUSEHOLD TAKES ONE COLORED
EASTER EGG AND PEELS IT. HE DIVIDES IT EVENLY FOR AS MANY PEOPLE
LIVING IN HIS HOME AND AFTER RECITING A PRAYER IN SLOVAK, GIVES
EACH PERSON IN HIS HOME A PIECE OF THE EGG. IT SYMBOLIZES
TOGETHERNESS IN THE FAMILY AND THAT GOD WILLING, ALL IN THE FAMILY
WILL LIVE UNTIL NEXT EASTER.

OH, I GOT A GAL NAMED CROSS-EYED SUE
HER EYES ARE RED AND HER LIPS ARE BLUE
SHE HAS DIMPLED HAIR AND CURLEY CHEEKS
HER FALSE TEETH RATTLE AND BACKSIDE KLINKS.
HER OLD MAN'S A SIGHT TO SEE
HE'S DRUNK BOTH NIGHT AND DAY
HE FEEDS HIS HORSES COLD FLAP JACKS
AND HE FEEDS HIS KIDS ON HAY.
CROSS-EYED SUE, SHE WEARS A SHOE
THAT BUTTONS UP THE BACK
HER FEET'S TOO BIG FOR STOCKINGS
SO SHE WEARS A GUNNY SACK.
CROSS-EYED SUE AND A KANGAROO
ARE VERY MUCH ALIKE
THE KANGAROO HOPS AROUND ALL DAY
AND SUE SHE HOPS ALL NIGHT.
