GOD BLESS US鈥擡VERYONE
by John McMenamin
听
I was kneeling by my bed last night
Staring at the sky
First I prayed for wee Sean Coyle
That God would heal is eye.
听
Then I prayed for Jordie
Who lost his friend, wee Jack
He鈥檚 gone to the ferret heaven
And he ain鈥檛 coming back.
听
Then I prayed for Michael
I know he鈥檇 pray for me
Don鈥檛 let him get excited
And run into a tree.
听
I prayed then for James Morton
Out there on his rounds
God keep away the muggers
Don鈥檛 let them steal his pounds.
听
Then I prayed for Gerry
I hope he will atone
Keep his eyes off other women
Leave Mike Nesbitts wife-alone.
听
I know she is good looking
And I feel the same way too
But Gerry, you have got a wife
Even God won鈥檛 give you two.
听
Then there was a blinding flash
And God appeared to me
You鈥檝e asked me for five things said he
I can only grant you three.
听
But we came to an arrangement
I had to take two back
So Sean, you only need one eye
And James鈥擯lease watch your back.
