I am alive and I know it is good
Especially down here in the mud
My husband has saved me
By calling the Navy
He woulda rung 999 if he could
His humour was there and his smile
But he was hopeless at gluing on tiles
He could bake and do roasts
Or kippers on toast
So with food he did often beguile.
He took me up cliffs and down dales
Covered in mud,wood and shale
My boots were worn out
But please never doubt
That a woman like me loved her male
The wind and the cliffs were a sight
After the snow there was light
He said, this is heaven
But we were in Devon
Still, it was heaven to his appetites!
I sang songs as we drove down the road
With our cat on my lap wrapped in clothes
The cat mioawed as well
He said, is this Hell?
I said, you tell me,honey,oh Lord!
How my heart sings
