The Farmer and Tom Bell

The farmer beat up Tom Bell, Smacked him up pretty well, High on moonshine he was, The farmer beat Tom Bell... Tom Bell flirted with the farmer's daughter, Tom Bell did something, He shouldn't had ought'a High on moonshine the farmer got, And beat Tom Bell to hell... Tom Bell had a fractured skull, Broken ribs and bones from dull... Blunt force trauma, And his medical insurance was quite null, High on moonshine, the farmer was, As Tom's injuries he did cull... Tom Bell wound up paralyzed, From those lecherous traveling salesman's eyes, High ho, Tom Bell did want to know, Where the moonshine was kept, Before of injuries he dies.
