Nancys Wonderful Husband Mike
Nancy was thrilled with her boyfriend, Mike
She followed him as he moved from town to town
There were things about him her relatives did not like
Mike was in the habit of putting Nancy's ideas down
He said if she got pregnant, he would leave her
She was his wife for twenty-three years, maybe
Her dream of being a morn squelched by this insolent cur
He left her to marry his girlfriend who was having his baby.
Nancy’s depression was expected by some.
She wasted her life doing things for this buffoon.
Many of us recognized Mike was a selfish bum.
For us, he could not leave too soon.
