Ronny Rap

With a glint in his eye
A mind like a steel trap
Don't mess with Ronny
He won't take any crap

He is a fine fellow
A good friend to choose
With his sense of humor
Ronny's sure to amuse

Still his family comes first
Sweet Tea and Jeanette
You better treat them right
Or Ronny will be upset

A man of substance
He'll treat you with respect 
Be prepared for anything
You never know what to expect.

Today on his birthday
We're honored he's a friend
He is the real deal
Ronny's not one to pretend.

Dedicated to Ron, September 7th, 2014
