Mine Friend Benny

I have a friend his name is Benny Hours of laughter, we have had plenty We have had good times around the old plant I would call and say,are you going in? I ain't Sometimes I'll call and say,how are you doing "Ole Buddy" He will say pretty good, sometimes the road is a little muddy He is a pretty good boy as boys goes What he'll do next, no body really knows I'll say Benny, I have retired you know I have to rub it in, as off to work he'll go I have written some sad poems,but I've decided to write one with humor,and not so one sided But getting back to my ole "Buddy" we all know I would mischievous and try to still the show some of the humor you may not understand but believe me, old Benny and I can Sometimes the ole boy will just drop in we will have coffee, and tell some jokes again We'll take on odd jobs just to make ends meet we just can't stand any kind of defeat I haven't seen him for a while, but I will soon sometimes he travels when there is a full moon.
