A Fable
She was a real nice lady,
Bore a son named Rick,
Had a daughter named Saddie.
Her husband was a.....stick
Yeah, his deals were shady,
but he didn't give a lick.
So after a time,
He committed a crime.
They sent him to the Big House
Where he got deloused.
His wife got despoused,
And stays pretty soused.
Now remember the son Rick?
Well now..he don't give a lick,
And Saddie...y'all remember Saddie?
Well she too, turned a little shady.
See, now they're turnin' out like their Dad,
The only Dad example they ever had.
So the moral is this.
Be a good Dad and care for your son and ladies,
cause if you don't you could all go to Hades!
