Going Shopping
One bright morning
Towards the early evening night
I wanted to go out,
So I took flight.
I drove to the nearest Bus Stop,
So I could ride to shop
I drove Down there all by myself
To pick out something pretty upon a shelf.
I got there and saw a gown in a window front Store,
My credit was declined,
And there is no more.
