"Not A Care In The World"
Not a care in the world They have all dropped away
I am high in the hills I am happy today
Not a care in the world I am down by the sea With the winds and waves Telling me I am free
Not a care in the world All the work now is done
By the Father within And the victory won We love you! Robert Jr., Victor, Deidre, & Rico Merriweather
