Milly

It was a swell morning,ย
And once again I was beat.
My luck changed, when I dropped a fag,
And found a dime in the rumble seat.
******************************
I bought a Bubble Up, and a Zero Bar,
Falling dizzy with a Dame,
She batted her eye, flashed me some thigh,
When I Finally asked her her name.
*****************************
"You'reย so silly, My names Milly,
And YOU! are new in this Town,
You're off the Cobb, dressed better than slobs,
And I love your Doghouse sounds!"
****************************
I told her she "Was the egg in my beer,
I'm a bubble dancing, Tiger meat.
I'll be shipping out for Europe.
With my buddies in a huge Navy Fleet.
***************************
She was togged to the bricks,
Knew all the tricks,
Talked so smooth and slick.
Ditched her pill namedย Rick,
Said his act made her sick,
And she knew how to drive a stick!
*****************************
I was hard boiled,
She was a little bit spoiled,
Than we took a little break to eat.
I said "you are the best I ever had,"
She said "You Shread it 'Wheat'!"
*****************************
Than the whistle blew, and we both knew,
It was time to say Goodbye.
My meat hooks grabbed my Duffle Bag.
And I drew a heavy sigh.
****************************
I took my thumb and wiped a tear,
And said "I love you so,
How I long, to be in two places,
How to do this?...I don't know"
***************************
She said "Your so sweet, you silly ol' Wheat'
I will see you every night!
Now you go on and get them Jerrys,
And Don't forget to write!"
***************************
ย She was togged to the bricks,
Knew all the tricks,
Talked so smooth and slick.
Ditched her pill namedย Rick,
Said his act made her sick,
And she knew how to drive a stick!
*********************************
The last time that I saw her,
Was nineteen seventy nine,ย
I was eighteen at theย Senor Center.
Once again, with only a Dime.
********************************
She said "Young Man you move me,
I think your Music is 'Groovy'
You remind me of a Solider I knew,
But the years and Meds may fool me.
******************************
"They tell me I have Cancer,
And soon I will surly croak,
The Nurses are such Bitches,
Young Man can you spare a smoke?"
******************************
She asked "What is your name?"
I said "they call me 'Wheat',..."
Her giggle was so silly,ย I called her 'Milly'
What a coincident That we should meet.....
