It all started with a big mistake; I’m here to tell it was all a big fake. Fred hit Kelly in his great big mouth; He said he caught Kelly at his girl’s house. Rosie was jealous of Fred’s main squeeze; Said she always does what she pleases. So, she cooked up the story about her. And Kelly never knew a thing either. But that didn’t stop the fur from flying. I tell you the truth, if I’m lying I’m dying. The mood changed in the old hangout. Everyone stuck around, nobody cut out.
Everyone was gathered for birthday cheer. You know, some pool and some beer. Nobody knew about Rosie’s big lie Or what kind of crap would soon fly. They just laughed and cracked jokes; Enjoyed some legal and illegal smokes. And when the mood was sufficiently jolly Rosie quietly took Kelly out into the ally. Said she saw Kelly go into the house Fred started fuming, calling Kelly a louse. He went back in and he smacked old Kelly And followed it up with a shot to the belly.
While Kelly was reacting, Fred purely raged. He wasn’t quite done, was not even assuaged. But Kelly’s girl Lydia heard what Fred said And smacked Rosie up side of her head. She started screaming that Rosie was a liar, And then there were two more irons in the fire. It was two women and two men slugging. The Fist City Express started chugging. Mirrors were broken by costly pool sticks The bartender finally got tired of the tricks And got out his baseball bat and stepped in. Rosie ******* up and hit him on the chin.
By now, a customer called nine one one, And the end of the brouhaha had begun. All four of the combatants were busted. And the cops finally decided they trusted The regular customers who all insisted That the bartender not be arrested. It might be good to say it was a big shame But fights in bars are the name of the game. Especially when women fight, it’s a show And bystanders in bars always let them go And then cheer and some even take bets. This is how selling alcohol to fools often gets.
