Freddy was ready
To have him a date,
But Suzie the floozy,
Was running quite late.
She had told Freddie,
I’ll see you at eight,
And it was ten-thirty,
Isn’t love great?
You see our poor Freddie,
Lived all alone,
Had nary a girlfriend,
No calls to his phone.
Til one day at the Piggly,
Piggly Wiggly that is,
Freddy went shopping,
When he heard a fizz,
He turned and was startled,
A can of grape Nehi
Lay there on the floor,
Squirting right on her thigh,
Suzie’s left thigh that is,
Right there on her leg,
And down there beside her,
A busted raw egg,
She cooed at poor Freddy,
Oh me, oh dear my,
I’ve dropped all my groceries,
I’m afraid I might cry,
Freddy knelt down beside her,
And said let me help,
When she stepped on his fingers,
Freddie let out a yelp,
Oh, I’m so sorry,
Suzie the Floozie did say,
With her cleavage a showing,
A right fine display,
Suzie said stranger,
You’re kind of cute,
Let’s go on a date,
It might be a hoot,
I’ll come by tomorrow,
I’ll be there at eight,
Just give your address,
We’ll have us a date.
So Freddie got ready,
He was dressed to the nines,
He been ready since noon-time,
Had been practicing his lines,
But Suzie the Floozy,
A no-show I fear,
She had got side-tracked,
Least-ways I did hear,
So Freddie got ready,
To have him a date,
Alone by the telephone,
Poor Freddie did wait,
He waited til midnight,
Ain’t love just great?

Monday morning smiles
are always a good sign
the week will go well,
despite poor Freddie's
circumstances.

Thanks, Chief!
