Tractors on my shoulders, dead does in my ditches.
I got a three-legged German Shepherd;
having a hard time keeping it away from the Husky bitches.
Me, I’m just trying to stay out of line of my wife’s stray pitches…
And my next-door neighbor Mrs. Minoviches
and anything that causes irritation and itches.
Always had a crush on that girl.
All I ever really could do was encourage her to sing and sing and sing.
My cousins call me Uncle Sam.
Uncle Sam says: “keep your back straight and your chin up-yeah you, you and you.”
Graduation Day
seems so far away.

I was just a little boy watching my brother in the kitchen throwing knives and breaking dishes on the ceiling with my fingers in the fixtures and his thumb upon the switch. He said, he said: lights out and hats off.

I got a lime green pick up in my front yard.
Yes it’s old Ms. Ellie she runs the co-op, but spoils my children with chocolates.
Me, I’m just trying to raise my two peacocks
to stay away from my next-door neighbor Mr. Minovich’s chicks and foxes.
