Ol' Paddy loves his frosty mugs-o-beer And nothin' better with it than a shot Of ginger flavored brandy like cashmere It warms him up a bit inside somewhat. Ol' Paddy is a pal to ev'ryone With cheers to all he slaps his money down "Another round, I say, join in the fun Come on, me lads, there is no cause to frown." Ol' Paddy's wife at home sits by the phone His supper on the table now's grown cold Long countless nights like this she's spent alone Just wishin' that her man were there to hold. Ol' Paddy stumbles home it's gettin' late Her tear stained note said "I no more could wait." Denise |

An old Irish fellow named Paddy Just loved to drink beer with the laddies. But, while he sipped the foam His wife sat home alone And she said" That old Paddy's a baddie!" Anything with an Irish flair is music to my ears, Denise. Nice one! |

hehehe...thanks Sally! I've a feeling the responses will line up along gender lines! (?) Different perspectives, I guess?! Thanks again for your read and comment! Denise |

Ol Paddy loved a gal name of Erin Whose features were perfectly flawless He would hide out of sight Near her window each night For a chance to see Erin go Braless! Toe made me!!!!!! |

'Deer, you're going to find a lump of coal in your stocking if you keep telling fibs. LOL. Toe didn't make you misbehave... (but he'll probably join you as soon as he gets the chance! LOL) I enjoyed the poem... but (just to keep this from being a battle along gender lines *G*) If a stop at his pub was the guy's norm Why was wife trying to keep the food warm? Why have dinner at eight If the man's always late And you know that he'll hold true to form? If she's tired of him being a real jerk Meet him tomorrow after work A hot woman, cold beer And she'll never more fear Where her man is... for's around HER he'll lurk! |
