Jesse James
Felt no shame
Billy the Kid
Robberies did
Al Capone
They left alone
Enrico Ponzi
Lived like Fonzie
Leftist mobs
Loot and rob
Proud Boys Gang
Sturm and drang

Criminals gritty
We love to pity
And that's the end
Of this little ditty

If this old guy gets to Heaven one of these days He'll surely be watching you peeps So be advised youse better behave My guys will be on standby ready to straighten you out And you surely wouldn't want that They are called angels but don't let the name fool you They can really be quite scary Betcha you had no idea You thought all angels were angelic like These guys were once 'angels' for Al Capone

Premium Member Drenched In Red With Saint Valentine

Straight-up the arrows,
hard-pressed the doors
to all the rooms
in all the houses
on Clark Street.

Father Coughlin brought blessings
thinned with broth
from potato peelings.

Women poured tears
into fringed shawls,
and buried their dead
above Dublin’s seashore,
along the banks
of the river Liffey.

Through the years,
the ghost of James Clark,
Bugsy’s brother-in-law,
pursued Al Capone 
all the way to his grave.

Prohibition In the Usa

Prohibition began one hundred years ago in the USA.
People had their right to drink booze taken away.
This made people unhappy and they began to whine.
And this caused Al Capone to start peddling moonshine.
Capone was evil and because of him, people were killed.
On December 5 1933, the 18th Amendment was repealed.
People were very happy because prohibition came to an end.
They were as giddy as school girls to have the right to drink again.

If this old guy gets to Heaven one of these days
He'll surely be watching you peeps
So be advised you guys better behave yourselves
My guys will be on standby ready to straighten you out
And you surely wouldn't want that
They are called angels but don't let the name fool you
They can really be quite scary
Betcha you had no idea
You thought all angels were angelic like
These guys were once 'angels' for Al Capone
So you have now been forewarned

Drenched in Red, with St. Valentine

Straight-up the arrows,
hard-pressed the doors
to all the rooms
in all the houses
on Clark Street.

Father Coughlin brought blessings
thinned with broth
from potato peelings.

Women poured tears
into fringed shawls,
and buried their dead
above Dublin’s seashore,
along the banks
of the river Liffey.

Through the years,
the ghost of James Clark,
Bugsy’s brother-in-law,
pursued Al Capone 
all the way to his grave.
