Bashful Billy
Said Bashful Billy
To this pretty young filly
"Can I give you a peck on the cheek?"
Said the pretty filly
To Bashful Billy
"Yes, but first there's something I seek!"
Well, Bashful Billy
Really had no clue
What this filly was asking Billy for
So he whipped out a frog
From his colourful togs
Said, "If that's not enough, I have more!"
"No! No! Silly Billy!
That's not what I mean
Want you to do magic tricks for me!"
"It is told you can bake
A great Birthday Cake
While balancing a hot cup of tea!"
"Well, yes if you wish
So then may I kiss
The tender young cheek that I yearn?"
"Well, not quite so fast
There's a thing I must ask
That you teach me a trick I may learn!"
Well Billy agreed
To teach this young filly
A trick that he knew she would love
With a wave and a shake
Of his magical cape
A pink cloud came down from above
Although they were hidden
You knew she was smitten
Bashful Billy had won her young heart
Riding into the sunset
With love a sure bet
You knew they would never part!
