Mary Had a Little Ham - Invited Me For Dinner

My lady friend Mary invited me over one day to have a little ham So, I put on my big heavy coat and my fur hat and grabed a digital cam It was late in November and the streets were white with snow But when Mary invited me over for some ham, I was sure to go Now I also want to mention that come spring little Mary Becomes a different person, quite to the contrary Last spring I asked her, Mary, Mary...(she's hard hearing) "how does your garden grow?" Well, she just went sort of weird on me and and replied: "sheeps in the meadow and cows in the corn"........ I could tell that she was a "Little Girl Blue", so I just went over and for her I did blow my horn But after a little while (the ham was gone).. so Jack (me) I was nimble about it and sort of quick I turned all of a sudden and just jumped right on over her candle stick I had my digital camera with me though and did take her picture, but no more talk And what do you know when I steped outside I ran right into this bean stalk.... Well it was more than I could resist, so I climbed it.... and so it just went on and on Till it was gone......... And so am I............ Real Gone.........
