Don’t know how I got it home The details are lost to me But not the honor that I felt Gifted that fat dictionary Mrs. Mathews in fourth grade A contest where she’d call a word The first to find it raised their hand Somehow I was that winning nerd Was raised in the Presbyterian Church Where we would have such Bible drills Call out a verse and look it up Got good at having those cheap thrills Winning that book gave me a lift Gave me self confidence I guess In a word it sent me on a path Cast a spell that I’m here to confess . . .
