Mama Warned Me About Him

Mama warned me about him
hitting the towns 
the woman
and the gin

rolling those sheets back
making ungodly sins
with leaving your heart
filled with nothing but grins

she said little girl
open your eyes once again
and see who loves you
and will be there in the end

for though he stands 
tall rich and thin
he'll leave your heart
just as fast once again

and leave you feeling blue in the end
so let's stop  play and pretend
that he's just another fellow
awaiting around the bend

that'll not get your heart
and your soul in the end
so it's better off just being friends
my little darling with such sad looking grins



Little Diddly 
Popped Into Head   LOL


Maybe Next Song Too
Please Let Me Know
Thanks Love Kathy And Jenny

Awesome rhyme and flow. Are you kidding - yes, it would make a great song. Subject matter every woman can relate to! Love, Shar
