Life's Cruelty
 

Some people call me Pirate-Jenny,
I haven’t got a lousy Penny,
my pockets empty as my belly,
I’m on my way to Dead Man’s Valley.

A handsome guy once in the boozer
said: "C’mon, Jenny, you’re no loser,
you’re fine and young, you’re not a scarecrow,
not born to spend your time in sorrow."

He gave me lots of drinks and kisses,
then introduced me to a Mistress.
She sent them upstairs to my chamber,
how many gents, I can’t remember.

One night a filthy stinking rich man
snored in my pillow like a brake van,
I stabbed the pig and took his money,
turned tail and ran fast as a bunny.

A lovely guy down in the tavern
abducted me to seventh heaven.
He took my heart and all my jewellery,
so now I’m broke. Well, that's life's cruelty.

An empty belly? That's not fine. :o

Try to fill it up with wine!:)

For wine

Is divine! :)

Nevis from the River Rhine ;)

I prefer the single malt,
I think also Scotch it's called,
from the Highland Whisky trail,
afterwards I creep like a snail.

Cheerio!
Pirate-Jenny

Though Nevis loves the Scottish lore,
he loves more the Tullamore!

And what he judges right divine,
that is our Baden wine!

Give me a regent any day,
Regent keeps the doc away! :)

Vivat crescat floreat vinum badensis! :)

Doctor Cheng Man Ching's Two Hats Cure

Once the Doctor Cheng Man Ching
said: "Forget just anything
which the western doctors told
how to fight a lousy cold.

Just sit down beside your bed,
on the bed-post place your hat,
drink some Scotch, that’s my advice,
til your hat appears there twice.

In the morn sir, stand assured,
you'll be well and truly cured.
If the cold beats the advice,
just repeat this treatment thrice!"*
