I Tank Yer

I Tank Yer I tank yer fer da guitar ’an an empty bottle o’ booze, ‘An I tank yer fer hav’n run out on me ‘an ma. I tank yer fer run’n real fa, ‘An I tank yer fer giv’n us nutt’n to loose. I tank yer fer ruin’n my life thru ‘an thru, ‘An tank yer fer makn’ me fight many a folk. I tank yer fer makn’ my life a run’n joke, ‘An I tank yer fer nam’n me Sue. I tank Johnny Cash for his dang song and fer mak'n my dad too dang dumb ‘an too wrong. I tank all the bars, ‘An all the whisky, ‘an all the ha’ars. ‘An I tank that this poem is too dang long.
