Bastard

A nice man came on Monday,

he was so good and kind,

she almost felt a twinge of guilt

when she had robbed him blind.

A nice man came on Tuesday,

rich, gentle and good,

she put him so much into debt,

he lost his livelihood.

But, when a bastard came along,

a bastard through and through,

then she loved that bastard,

she loved that bastard true.

A nice man came on Wednesday,

Macky slit his throat,

and after he had slit it,

he sold his hat and coat.

A nice man came on Thursday,

she said him she did love,

until the money, it ran out,

then she him gave the shove.

But, when a bastard came along,

a bastard through and through,

well, then she loved that bastard,

she loved that bastard true.
