I'm worth the trouble

From time to time I'll craft witty and original country westerns.  Sometimes they may even be remarkable.  Sometimes they maybe aren't even country westerns but something approaching poetry.  Here's a little ditty I wrote to ma lady, it's called I'm worth the trouble.  


i'm worth the trouble
(April 2012)

come bail me out
i'm worth the trouble
it wasn't me
only my evil double.

i haven't shaved
nor behaved
but stick with me
and my lonesome stubble.

come fix me up
when i'm in my rubble
i ain't complicated
like the telescope hubble
so stick with me
i'm worth the trouble.

when i come home so drunk
i can barely stumble
when i can't speak words
i can only mumble
stick with me
i'm worth the trouble.

i'll take you places
by that i mean
the dog track for the races
i'll spend your money
but don't ya worry honey
i'll say something funny
and when i do
you'll realize
i'm worth the trouble.

i got no ambition
but i bought you kittens
look into their eyes
and you'll realize
i'm worth the trouble.
