Premium Member Flag Maker Betsy Ross
It is said the first flag maker was Ms. Betsy Ross
Was also said she could do well with some dental floss
As one can imagine twas because she ran out of thread
She forgot to order it because she didn't take her meds

Betsy Ross of Colonial days
Could never imagine the ways
Our United States flag would be blessed
To fly on the Moon and Mount Everest.

Premium Member Betsy Ross Lied
To the Redcoats Betsy Ross lied.
“It is not a flag!” she decried.
“I'm due at a wedding
and all of this threading
will be a new gown for the bride!”

“But it isn't just one little dress,”
with nose growing she had to confess,
“A collection I've planned--
t'will sell big in...

Betsy is “just a cow” most would say. She’s dark rust, almost auburn in color, with large white patches all over her body and especially on her rather long, nosey face. She has deep, soft eyes the color of coffee and they tend to embrace...

The Missus Unflagging Crocheting Efforts As Betsy Ross Incarnate
The missus unflagging crocheting efforts as Betsy Ross incarnate

With needle in hand incorporating love
in every single crochet stitch
that's my wife
tad more'n a quarter century ago
then newlywed to yours truly
slowly, magically but inexorably
transforming skein of yarn
into requested end product
of her tastefully done choice.

Eventual inchoate objective
will become...

Betsy Was a Good Old Sport
Styled like a T Bird.
She really purred in third.
By listening to the engine
you did shift.
Ahe was sleek and styling
if you get my drift.
Her body golden cream,
the roof black.
It's the one with the roof
that slants slightly back.
Pop shifting soon became
my speciality.
I just loved my 
1964 Super...

Old Betsy - Part 3
Old Betsy is my shotgun and she keeps most salesmen away.
But some come on my property but they sure as hell don't stay.
Old Betsy shoots the hats off of their heads and she shatters their windshields.
Because of Old Betsy, they drive away because they think...

Ride By Betsy Dowdy
Ride by Betsey Dowdy

Old Jarvis used to always say
That the British will come someday
And burn our houses darn them all
So on Joe Dowdy he had to call.

Joe, Great Bridge, Dunsmore's heading for
Then he will be here we know for sure
Stealing everything that is in his...

Old Betsy - Part 2
Old Betsy is my shotgun and she's something that men end up dreading.
When my daughters get pregnant, Old Betsy is responsible for shotgun weddings.
When men impregnate my daughters, they try to run.
But Old Betsy stops them, she's one hell of a shotgun.
When one man tried...

Betsy Meek and Mild
BETSY MEEK AND MILD

There was a cow called Betsy
She was gentle meek and mild.
A pretty coloured Jersey one,
Milked daily by a young child.

Betsy loved to feel the touch
Of the child's warm soft fingers,
Sending her into a dream like state,
Memories on which she lingers.

When the child...

Premium Member Not That Betsy
O, do you remember sweet Betsy from Pike?
She trekked ‘cross the prairie in search of a dyke.

She developed incontinence in Illinois;
She was cured of what ailed her by a strange nether boy.

Well, she only spoke German and he only spoke Dutch,
But the way that he...

My only true love Betsy and, I are away for a day out down by the sea shore 
Both of us holding hands, I am with a lass, I am sure I will love forever more

The innocence in her laughter, as we draw our names...

Old Betsy
Old Betsy is my shotgun and she's the reason why I don't keep my money in a bank.
When people try to steal my money, they learn that Old Betsy isn't filled with blanks.
People break into my house but they end up not leaving.
Because of Old...
