John Donne was the bully
of the Robinson School

Twice the size of me and Jimmy West
The whole third grade feared him
Tried hard to avoid him
C

The New Day's belt buckle
that my daddy had won and gave me
his dark eyes shined upon it
D

he'd have it for his own

C

And my folks treated him like family
He said he'd be a monkey's uncle
Before John Donne took my buckle
C

It was Davy and Goliath
John swung and missed Jimmy,
