There once was a man from Hot Springs Who met the girl of his dreams She said come along But he did her real wrong And he crashed as he flew without wings. And then there's that gal from bell vistah Who showed interest in Hot Springs Mistah but he showed her his life and dreamed of a wife And she said, 'I'll just go play with sistah' A man and his boy had a home But this girl wouldn't leave him alone So she came and made dinner And he wound up a sinner So he died without breaking a bone The ragtop is rusting and broken While he begs for a small little token But she lets others woo While she tells him to shoo So he'll never ever quit smokin The doctor said take some of these You'll soon be as fit as you please But the summer was hot And too anxious he got So he cut himself off at the knees Another says new love awaits But he sits with his guilt and he hates His own lying self And his cook, the cute elf While hellfire eternal awaits So let's ask the man from Hot Springs Why his voice still mournfully sings He'll say why sing a lovesong When she won't sing along I wish she'd keep pulling the strings Her voice struck a chord in my heart The first time I called her to start What promised to be Love so true and free Then I had to go break it apart Limerick is a new kind of fun Cause you write five lines and your done But she came to my shoulder Like Sisyphus' boulder And I ran and I lost and she won I will always love you |
