Grandma`s Trek
***************
I walked 10 miles this morning
And me feet are nearly dead
I have bunions on my big toe
and corns upon me head
I cartwheeled across the country
and got callouses on me hands
and got gout upon my fingers
and I can barely stand.
A seat I found and rested
and my heart was going thud
and as I stood to make a movement
I slipped upon the mud
My knickers got a soaking
In the puddles on the ground
and am like a headless chicken
just running round and round.
My teeth they fell from out my mouth
and were chattering on the floor
and me leg that`s artificial
went walking through the door
I think i`ve had enough today
I am feeling kind of beat
Please dont keep me any longer
`cos I must rest me feet.
