Joe & Daisy

People said, Joe’s thread was off his spool,

Or that he had bats in the belfry,

All the little euphemisms you’d expect there’d be,

for someone the neighborhood claimed was crazy

Everybody, that is, but Daisy May

Her parents told her to stay away,

But she went to see Joe anyway

she knew the truth, he was perfectly sane,

what they really hated him for was,

he walked with a cane

Then came the day they ran away,

they’re married now, with a baby on the way
