Me and my Mom 3

My mom, although otherwise connected to reality only tenuously, remembered melodies and songs and sings pretty much in tune. I used play piano for her while she sang popular tunes from her youth, mostly from sheet music she and Dad picked up at auctions and antique shops. Here I struggle to remember "Poor Butterfly" and I remember it as "something Irish" because I remember the way she sang the phrase "I'm sure he come/ to me by and by...." and Mom says "I think we do pretty well,"
