She was a rough dame
Johnny thought
watching her pass by
kind of girl
to take no nonsense
no lip
or give a ear a clip
bust a jaw
and give what for
but there was
an element
of beauty there
the flowing hair
the fine figure
as she walked
the burning eyes
with her backward glance
aff tae Scootlund
she said need
tae gettae wae
nae mair tae say
she said
then was off
with a turn
of her head
and Johnny watched
her go
her firm ***
big *****
***** like
bundled babes
and then out
of sight
like a bold ship
rough riding
in a dark night.
