Dinner in the oven

One day my dad at the age of twenty two came home to find his dinner in the oven,

On the table was a note that said ive gone to catch the Boat

With my first true love who has returned

My dad was very angry because his steak was burned,

My dad set his eyes on the young woman who lived across the road .

He always held a fancy to her so I'm told,

The young woman was my mam .

Soon she was wheeling a pram.

Thankyou runaway new bride

I was my dads pride,



By peaches.
