Happily Married Mcgee

The Secret Of McGee's 
Long Happy Marriage 



McGee was holding down a stool
At McJock's Pool-hall and pub
When Finn came in wearing a grin
And his *** smoked down to a nub

He pulled up a stool, and sat with McGee
And gave him a pat on the back
"Congratulations, you old sod"
Then gave the bar a loud whack

"It's been forty-six years, since you've been wed
How is it you stayed with one lass
Divorce today is common they say
Marriage,  not made to last"

McGee looked at Finn straight in the eye
Then took a sip of his stout
"Respect, one another" he said with a sigh
"RESPECT, is what it's about"

"She Respectfully asks for that she wants 
And sometimes I'm put to the test
But especially when She's shopping, my friend 
I Respectfully nod my head Yes! "

Finn could learn a lesson or two from McGee. Great humor, Jerry, and I love the name of your pool hall.
