I feel a poem coming on

 The wind was blowing strong

The cards were on the table

She had a face so long

I thought a horse was in the stable


But then her voice spoke

And it bolted out the door

And I don't want to hear

Her ringing words no more


Oh I feel a poem coming on 

Don't you listen to the slap

The steer pikes are following

Their wraps

The blood that I have given though never was it given

Oh I feel a poem coming on


I'm gonna take my axe 

And cut down the stiles

It is an unfortunate

Tax but it has been gone for a while

And though the people flax

And though the keys
