 the gypsy poet

a country gal


   she was a love of mine
            a beauty and a rose
            she offered me her friendship
            with words that shed composed

            she was born within the sunshines rays
             raised up in power
            she was an angel of mercy
            a true prairie flower

            her mother was a baker
             her father was a judge
            her brothers were all boxers
             each one held a grudge
              
            i loved her in the springtime
            when buds were on the trees
            i loved her in the meadows
            she had me on my knees

            i loved her in the straw
            i loved her in the fall

            she was pretty as a picture
             her frame was heaven sent
            she captured up my innocence
             offered me her scent

            she went to church on Sundays
            she read the bible quotes
            she was such an angel
            but she kept a billy goat

            she made love on Mondays
            she booked it in her notes
            she was playful as the fairies
           so neat and so composed

            kept me on my toes

            she wore frilly dresses
           with Lacey underclothes
            she was a lady in the daylight
            at night she was a rose

            she tied her hair in ribbons
            she had me in her spell
            i was just a country boy
             it was for her i fell

            she was sentimental
            spoke words of diction too
            took me in the hayrick
            took me for a fool

            her neck was majestic and her body too
            she played games with my heart
            and took away my blues

            she was quick with her affections
            fast with her touch
            she gave me comfort in the daytime
            but at night she was too much

            she was styled in cute perfection
            right down to her toes
            she was perfect in her demeanor
            and rare beneath her clothes

            the parsons son was jealous
            though he didn't throw a line
            just asked us where wed been
            and did we have a good time

            the church bells they were ringing
             the meadows they were green
            we heard them from a distance
            the night of Halloween

            she was precious in her movements
            she was free with her caress
            she loved to share her feelings
            that much i can confess

            the night was full of starlight
            and the moon was all aglow
            as we lay there in the hayloft
            we had nowhere else to go

            the moral of my story
            the wisdom of my tale
            don't go off to the haystacks
            with just a country gal
