He Was a Scoundrel

He rode into town on a big white horse
Showing he was serious of course
We were amazed and amused

Many maidens gave a deep sigh
And married women thought I know not why
We smiled among ourselves

Is he a prince, a rogue or a king?
We knew it was something to later be seen.
We talked about him for days and days.

Nine months later there were six new babies
Proof that the cad had a way with the ladies
We were glad when he left in the night
