Poem

If I could change my past, I'd change the date
I wouldn't have been born in thirty eight

I would move that date back a hundred years
And be in Texas with all of my peers

I'd still know then what I have come to know
And I'd stay way clear of the Alamo

I'd work as a cowboy and save my pay
They didn't know 'bout oil back in the day

I'd use my savings to buy min'ral rights
Keep 'em under my pillow those dark nights

Then when they have figured out what they got
I'll show my pillow for the whole dang pot -

Then when I'm rich I'll think of Mary Lou
Who dumped me for "someone better than you!"

With the change of a hundred years or so
I'll find her great grandmother who's named Flo

And then I will court her for all it's worth
My old Mary Lou may not come to birth

To change my past, I say it with a twinge
Looks like I'd go for money and revenge
