Woke up in dis mornin,

a twitchin ana a churnin,

whena emma I be learnin?

that choco cake and cream vanilla,

cause I hit her in the heada.

 

 

I ended on the sofa

abouta 3:00 am.

Don’t know how I gots theyah

coulda been the frostin,

coulda been Bo Peep.

 

 

Mornin blues my faultin it a  be,

    Smiling here. I’m glad you stopped to see me! I don’t know if I would have found you otherwise. I was thrown by that Gerald thing :). Happy Independence Day, Jerry. I’m walking in a rhythm after this read :).
