Daddy Gander's Newfound Runes

Rain, rain, grow the hay.
Grow the weeds another day.
If I die before I wake,
Skip it.

Little Boy Blue come blow.
Can’t Man; learning a new instrument.
What’s wrong with the old one? where’d you get the new one?
Found it in a haystack Man.

Old Mother Hubbard,
Decently covered,
Went to her final reward.

She had to laugh.
Manger was half
Empty and half kennel.

Might’ve known
Old Church been living on
Principal.

I fired a missile up.
It came down maybe.
Maybe it stayed up.
Things ain’t much like they used to be.
