Father Mckenzie's Secret
It is said, that Eleanor Rigby died in a church...
And was buried along with her name
That's because, Father McKenzie got his hands dirty
At the church, late one night, when nobody came
As the father was darning his socks at night
Eleanor had come in and she sat on a pew
Then she whispered softly in the father's ear
"Father, the devil had sent me...to you"
He never seen her face before...
She must have been one of those lonely people
So he locked the doors and grabbed her hand
And he took her to the dungeon in his steeple
He kept her there until she died
Twenty five years she was enslaved
No one had ever heard of her...never
But on a tombstone "Eleanor Rigby" was engraved
