Analysis of Goodbye my lady



Goodbye my lady we were in love.
You ended it all with a great big shove.

Goodbye my lady all you did was cry.
You wished me gone, wished me to die.

Goodbye my lady you broke my heart.
I knew you didn't love me from the start.

Goodbye my lady you broke our marriage.
You have skeletons and alot of carriage.

Goodbye my lady were married by god.
I smelled the smell that smelled real odd.

Goodbye my lady a smell of a man.
You was cheating on me I'll be damn.

Goodbye my lady he was a bad bad guy.
You two got it on it he sure wasn't shy.

Goodbye my lady im not mad.
No child support im not the dad

Goodbye my lady he will have to pay.
Until the child is eighteen until that day.

Goodbye my lady is an understatement.
When I beat your man into the pavement.

Goodbye my lady your a homewrecker.
Go ask a fact checker.

Goodbye my lady im not very sad.
The one time I cussed out your dad.

Goodbye my lady this whole poem doesn't make sense.
Your new man doesn't have a brain it's pretty dense.

Goodbye my lady this writing is done.
Go sail off into the sun.
