The Virgin

Once a virgin, innocent in every way

A beast courted her with his wares

His words were full of flattery

His means were only snares.

The virgin fell under his tempting spell

Her dowry full of jewels

The beast made off with five of these

The virgin made a fool.

Trusting lass this lady listened

as he promised to right and pay

for the diamonds he had subtly stole

and those gems he gave away

The beast returned and made a date

with this virgin fine and fair

His words were still deceit and fraud

as her delicate skin he began to bare

She awoke suddenly from the state of trance

and yelled no -- no -- please no!

The beast took a club and beat her

and began to rape her so.

Beaten, raped and trodden down

the beast made the gal his slave

to end the continual beatings

she let him have his ways.

He held her down by many frauds

and made her think she was his wife

He kept stealing all her treasures

and kept her poor in strife

Until one day she discovered

that she was really free

an independent lady

was what she was meant to be

There was no marriage contract

there were no marriage vows

only smoking mirrors

Her cry ‘Let me go now!"

The beast promising her dreams and hopes

Still only full of lies

The lady left the bigamous beast

And she let Freedom fly.

Never again will she be enslaved

by any beast or man

The lady’s name is Texas

the fairest of all land.
