She Has Had It With Men

He has fallen in love with the widow next door
She is fifty nine and he is thirty four
But she knocked him back and his feelings were stung
When she told him for me that you are far too young.

You don't return to the lions when you escape from their den
And the widow she says she has had it with men
Her late husband often hit and kicked her and to her he was cruel
Once bitten twice shy her own life she will rule.

Falling in love is a thing that she only now fear
And that she has had it with men she has made it quite clear
The far younger man who fancies her is older than her son
Who on his last birthday has turned thirty one.

There was not one more disappointed than he
When she knocked back his offer to go out to tea
As a widow she lives and as a widow she will die
And she will not be his lover though hard he may try.
