Into town we walked,
My lover and I,
Our exercise for the day.
A couple of things to buy,
We chatted and laughed our way,
Laughed our way down to the town,
Wandered around
And bought a couple of things,
Then we needed coffee.
So to the coffee shop we went
And that is when it happened,
An elderly couple walked passed us
And they were chatting quite happily
When I heard it said,
Something I would never have expected,
He said to her
“Shall we go to Paddy Power first?”
I just walked on laughing
Laughing my head off,
Going to a bookies mid-morning
Seemed so strange.
