The Mean Old Rolling Stone
There once lived a mean rolling stone
Who was more like a Capone
He would sing a verse
Then steal away your purse
A rocker that was bad to the bone!...

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...

Capone
there once was a stray shelter cat named Capone
adopted to kill all the mice in his home
a mouser they said
his owner misled
he just played with all the mice and let them roam

Not All Angels Are Angelic
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...

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On December 5 1933, the 18th Amendment was repealed.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....

Tax Dodging
When tax is due make sure that you pay
Scarface didn't and got put away
For the feds they got wise
Took Capone by surprise
Alcatraz he went for a long stay.
So the moral of this limerick rhyme
Tax dodging is a serious crime
If you love prison life
And you wont miss your wife
Be prepared you'll go down for some time .
