Melancholy Mary Melon

by Bill Schott

Melancholy Mary Melon
Was a frequent flyer felon
Cruising for a life in stir
Should a third arrest occur.

Then there was the jewelry store
Smash and grab, an easy score
Mary made a major heist
Hauled away the hottest ice.

Mary used her common sense
Since five oh checked out every fence
She gave them to her closest friends
To pay old debts and make amends

She met a man and it wasn't long
'Til the dude had done her wrong
Her bullet was that cheater's end
Now Mary's sad and in the pen.
