since we met there’s been no one other than you
and old Writey.
When just a boy his acquaintance I made
his strength held my youth and he gladly gave
since then we’ve been inseparable.
Even you knew when we met long ago
he’d never able keep his hand off me
and time to time
you’ve made his acquaintance too.
Now is he old, gnarled, and worn from long use
I can not abandon him, nor would I
I hope he'll be with me rest of my life
I could not bare it any other way!
