Ruth Ann Is a Subcriminal

Ruth Ann is a subcriminal Picks up a pen from offices and banks She did not plan or mean to be a thief She slides them into her purse without antic or cranks Unfortunately this habit led to others She shoplifts clothes, and a jackhammer She is no longer welcome in homes of her brothers So sad that she eventually ends up in the slammer She should have never stolen from Daddy Hank For his new trophy wife is a huge ugly crank The family tries to get Daddy to back off, But all wife-y has to do is give a come-hither-cough So Ruth Ann ended up behind bars for life And her daddy is still pleased with his mean trophy wife.

It is sadly so true that some men with throw away their children for the right mean woman.
