The Provider

Donning his bright yellow rainslicker slow For it was wet, cold, and wind did blow That old slicker was a gift from an ol' employee The other side looked like the Marlboro cowboye The provider felt a strong sense of responsibility So out into the elements and night he did go Bills to pay and Christmas presents needed, so Shoulders bent against the wind one more day The job he faced again, struggling against Cost of inflationary trends, needs the job to end Our deficeit getting higher, prices still rage Elderly though he be, he loves his family
