My Delilah I run my fingers through the nub Through the crew cut and the stub Delilah keeps it nice and trim Keeps short my follicles of vim And thought I meditate my fate By God I think it is too late She’s hooked me up unto the plough As if I were a horse or cow And though each day I work the field I come home to the richest yield My food is cooked my house is clean My bed is made all fresh and preens And I am happy with the bill My cup is full until it spills And though I ache in every bone I know that I am not alone. So till they come to pick me up I’ll sip this honey’s buttercup. |
