What Do You Drive
I said hey do you drive
?
She said only men wild
!
I said hey babe
.
Let’s go for a ride then
.
But she drove me away
&
Then brushed me aside
,
Like a flake or a crumb
.
I had nowhere to hide
.
I said hey babe
,
Let’s take a walk on the..
!
Too late she was gone
.
Oh well
!
It was fun while it lasted
xx

Where did she go? Was she related to Boadicea? Oh, that was yesterday's gal! lol.
yep.. this is someone completely different.. maybe more up your street & Fido's..
I think it all went wrong at ‘hey babe’ lol.
Need to work on your chat up lines!
Catchy expression of it though.
Played like a comedy sketch in my mind.
Not sure if that was the intention? 😂
Ps by all went wrong I meant the man in your poem not your poem. I liked the poem, it made me laugh. Laughing is good.
Now that is good to hear... bless ya sylviasearcher... thank you .. N
The shame of being taken in by a two-timing dame eh Nev ? - - Loved this fun poem with its excellent flow and amazing rhyme-schemes - am still singin' it in my head.
Yeah.. how cool is that... thanks Fay... am still working on the B side... N
I can hear that baritone sax solo..... and the coloured girls say 'do da do - dad doo dad doo' etc
Feels odd writing 'coloured' in 2019
The song by Lou Reed was actually about a transvestite friend of his so maybe the 'lady' in your piece did u a favour being gone. But i don't know which way you swing LOL.
Hey DA, good to see you here.. yes, that is some sax innit and of course you would know all about that... I did know the inspiration behind the original song but must admit I like the song so much it could have been written about anything.. or anyone.. Many thanks for checking in... and just for the record, forgive the pun... I swing it my way.. or was that Frank Sinatra... N 🙂
Enjoyed the read but haven't a clue how Lou Reed's (who is Lou Reed - must google him) Walk On The Wild Side goes - might know if I heard it though,.
No problem, if you enjoyed the read, minus Lou Reed, there is no harm done.. if you are intrigued you could visit him via Youtube..... cheers anyway Michael.... N
Yes a good fun write that fits well with the music -da doo.
cheers GF60 dat l doo nicely... N
