Joy Thacker Poems

Della and Dan had a big fight- -She caught him cheating- With her best friend one night- Della told Dan to get on his way- -And he'd better be gone before the break of day- Dan said goodbye- And slammed the door- Della told never- To come back anymore- Della never re-married- And neither did Dan- She was a happy single girl- He was a happy single mam.

If the good Lord's willing- And the creeks don't rise- I'll be at Church on Sunday- -If the good Lord's willing- And the creeks don't rise- I'll go to work on Monday- Good Lord willing- Good Lord willing- Good Lord willing- I'll still be around.

Heaven is a beautiful place- Where the sun shines every day- When we enter into Heaven's door- Our troubles will all fade away- The sun always shines in Heaven- No storn clouds will we see- The sun will always be shining-
