Sally and John

Sally & John once were hot
Used to be lovers but now they're not
Live in my ol' neighborhood
Look at each other as strangers would

I used to love Sally way back when
We'd go out now and again
But she wanted John when John did not
So I watched, she waited on time she bought

John came 'round after awhile
Thought Sally was the one to make him smile
But John got restless as lovers do
Chasin' other women, had quite a few

Sally left John, couldn't take the pain
She won't do that all over again
So she stays home in her ol' place
Hardly goes out, never paints her face

So I think I'll go back home again
Look up Sally, some of my ol' friends
She might like some company
Perchance this time will work out for me
