PEACHES

Fuzzy peaches round and ripe

out in Grand Pa's field

so I looked to see if Grand Ma watched

before a peach, I'd steal

and so it seemed  I was all alone

and oh, they looked so good

so I picked a peach from off the tree

just because I could

I know t'was not the thing to do

I had not ask for one

but I thought I'd get away with it

because it was such fun

Oh it was the bestest thing

of this I will allow

But 'round the barn came Grand Pa then

behind the horse and plow

and he looked at me a if to say

what do have there, Son

did Grand Ma say you could have a peach

before our supper's done

and as he looked at me so kind

I hung my head in shame

for now that peach that was so good

just did not taste the same

Now I'm in the dog house

i've been grounded for a week

my bottoms sore, my britches tore

and I'm crying as we speak

So let me give you some sound advise

if you don't want to feel the stick

just keep your hands in pockets deep

if you see fruit, not your's to pick
