Atlanta Dawn

Thinking of you Atlanta Dawn
I was her sucker her plans drawn

the marriage was hell
never rang my bell

said I gave her baby
never came no maybe

just another lie from hertThough at times she made me purr

love is much more than sex
she loved taking my checks

that was so long a go
Atlanta Dawn no show

maybe someday a child will come
one thing sure child’s life won’t be glum
