Lucky Escape

- I stood in the door way of this cinema town A punch to my head and a fall to the ground Staggered back up to my feet in a flash A black tooth sheep herder stared back in a dash Dressed like a tramp in wellington heel The manure had a stench and litle appeal I moved down the hill as another punch came out Some traveller girls screamed and did shout I turned in a temper a boot to his frame Crumpled below but nothing would tame Got up once again and I asked for the law Came at me and dived I pucnhed his red jaw - Then head locked this idiot and dragged him to toilet A public amenity I just tried to foil it Round by the sink and taps hit his head and dragged him back out as the blood ran quite red Then he cried solefully and said dont you know A bag on his side he decided to show. I said I knew not and you should not then fight Medical care your mind had no sight So finally said he may never be let Drink in my Ma's bar in future he bet Many years later this stranger was caught Playing with sheep and a case it was sought True story.
