[00:05.701]Dear Harry,
[00:09.649]I've never sent a telegram before.
[00:14.169]I drove all the way to town in a downpour,
[00:18.922]So I sure hope this reaches you in time for your vote today.
[00:24.132]I'm real proud you hold that office, and Son,
[00:28.037]There's something I must say.
[00:31.808]Your father gave his life in the Great War three years ago.
[00:36.960]I know I'll be kicked out of Muckman County for saying so.
[00:41.727]I hate this president for making him go,
[00:46.291]And I wish I'd had the right to vote him out.
[00:50.677]Now, I know I'm just an old farmer's widow, milking cows in Tennessee,
[00:56.188]But I read the paper and I've seen the women marching to be free.
[01:01.321]They made me think that maybe I could hop a train to Washington DC and march too.
[01:08.769]Only I was home raising you, so I did my best to teach you what I knew.
[01:17.736]Then your own little girl is nearly three.
[01:23.125]What do you want her future to be?
[01:27.669]Will you vote for her, my son?
[01:30.744]Let your mama know she raised a good one.
[01:35.386]And oh, I made that meatloaf you like, so come on home when you're done.
[01:42.922]Burn, burn for Christ sakes, burn!
[01:48.947]Uh, We did it
[01:51.647]With lots of love.
[01:55.023]Mama

Dear Harry,
I've never sent a telegram before.
I drove all the way to town in a downpour,
So I sure hope this reaches you in time for your vote today.
I'm real proud you hold that office, and Son,
There's something I must say.
Your father gave his life in the Great War three years ago.
I know I'll be kicked out of Muckman County for saying so.
I hate this president for making him go,
And I wish I'd had the right to vote him out.
Now, I know I'm just an old farmer's widow, milking cows in Tennessee,
But I read the paper and I've seen the women marching to be free.
They made me think that maybe I could hop a train to Washington DC and march too.
Only I was home raising you, so I did my best to teach you what I knew.
Then your own little girl is nearly three.
What do you want her future to be?
Will you vote for her, my son?
Let your mama know she raised a good one.
And oh, I made that meatloaf you like, so come on home when you're done.
Burn, burn for Christ sakes, burn!
Uh, We did it
With lots of love.
Mama
