Suffer Fools

 Did you ever wish you were homeward bound

But with no chance of trains around

No other way to make it Home

No car no Bus and all alone


Did You ever have to suffer Fools

and found yourself singing the Blues

If this sounds familiar to you

Well aren't you lucky in your shoes


Waking up in the middle of night

just waiting for the Dawns new light

Wishing and hoping you could find a way

of getting home on Christmas day


Did you ever have a birthday wish

sent by card with a kiss

The envelope gave away

the obvious clue for your day


Did You ever have to suffer Fools

and found yourself singing the Blues

If this sounds familiar to you

Well aren't you lucky in your shoes


Colored and looking oh so pretty

Made me smile as just for Me

Did you ever queue for a Boxing day deal

did you ever enjoy a restaurant meal


 Candles and Cake, Toast and Cheers

setting up another round of Beers

If this sounds familiar to you

Well aren't you lucky in your shoes


Did you ever receive a valentines card

Unsigned delivered and found it hard

To decipher whence from where it came

No clues in the rhyme or even a name


Did You ever have to suffer Fools

and found yourself singing the Blues

If this sounds familiar to you

Well aren't you lucky in your shoes


Many times I felt so low

 as all these things would surely show

How many friends and family

 were loving you unconditionally


I made it through my early years

laughed a lot avoided tears

I knew the way to get attention

How to have fun and not to mention


Be different to established norms

And fill out all the Funny Forms

Questions asked always replied

With a laugh out loud while I lied


Did You ever have to suffer Fools

and found yourself singing the Blues

If this sounds familiar to you

Well aren't you lucky in your shoes


Never making my way in life

without a worry or with strife

But always walked mile after mile

with a kindness and the broadest smile


Still going and now looking back

A little unsure since a heart attack

nether the less I will keep on 

Banging the drum while singing my song.


Did You ever have to suffer Fools

and found yourself singing the Blues

If this sounds familiar to you

Well aren't you lucky in your shoes


Gimme Give Me More good News

Keep me walking in these shoes
