Should Have Seen and More

Should Have Seen

You should have seen what I saw;
Looked just like my mother in law;
Had been devoted;
Body badly bloated;
She called me a turkey in the straw.

Jim Horn

Think Turkey in the Straw is a dance.

Holy Rollers In A Row

What I saw was Holy Rollers in a row;
Could always tell by way faces glow;
They Have held on,
Until communion gone;
Episcopalian Priests are always a pro.

Jim Horn

For all of us we know that God cares;
Do start to play,

He will always free us from all despair.
Wrote this especially for Jon Freeman
