They said, "Ma'am, if you just let us Our brother just got in an accident We want to just come in and make a telephone call We want to call the doctor" They walked in, and the daughter got on the phone And the phone kept ringing and there was no answer Finally somebody picked up the phone and said "I'm sorry, but the doctor's not here He's out on his rounds" Somebody say yes here (yes) Well, the daughter put that phone down and went back into the living room And the little children they were sitting there crying They were all sitting there crying and by that time Grandma had got out of the car She made her way across that dirt road and She walked up to it and just opened up the screen door And she peeped in, and she said, "How's my son doing?" And they told her, said, "Mama we tried to call the doctor But he was out on his rounds" She said, "Yeah, let me come in" She walked in and she looked at that white lady She said, "Ma'am, do you have a closet?"
