When Wifes Attack...

My wife just left and the well went dry,

and my horse is sick and about to die.



Then, my still blew up and the barn burned down,

and the road washed out ~ on the way to town.



Then, my dog got rabies and bit the cat,

and they both died ~ soon after that.



Now, I lost my specs and my pipe-stem broke.

So, I can't even sit and read, and smoke.



Then, a tree fell on the chicken shed

and most of the hens got smashed; plumb dead.



Then, a chimney fire took half of a wall

and this old shack is about to fall.



Then, I caught my heel on an old dead vine

and sat, smack dab, on a porcupine.



Then, a beaver dam broke and my bridge washed out,

and my watch stopped working, and I've got the gout.



And, the bank foreclosed. So, I've lost my place

and my cow disappeared ~ without a trace.



They cut off my credit, at the grocery store,

and I lost my job, and a whole lot more.



I must have been hexed by a triple curse,

as things keep going from bad to worse.



And now, fate has hit me a last dirty crack.

To top off the worst, my wife's come back!
