Bonnie

By Michael Chambers
Bonnie was a girl that I once knew
She called me one day out of the blue
To tell me that we had a kid
I was struck dumb but I couldn't run
I couldn't think with my brain undone
Had no memory of what we did

O Bonnie why’d you bring me news like this
I struggle to recall if we even kissed
I sometimes can’t remember if it’s May or September
O Bonnie why’d you bring me news like this

It had been many years ago
I moved on so I didn't know
All this time I lived in ignorance
If I'd a known I'd a hung around
I might have even settled down
And given this whole family thing a chance

But I'm messed up and it's far too late
Life's been tough and It ain't been great
The demon drink has taken it's toll
It's too late now to meet the kid
I ain't that proud of what I did
I'd only dig myself a bigger hole

O Bonnie why’d you bring me news like this
I struggle to recall if we even kissed
I sometimes can’t remember if it’s May or September
O Bonnie why’d you bring me news like this

So Bonnie I need you to go away
I don't really have much more to say
I wish you well and I wish the kid the same
So she hung up and she was mad
I guess she thinks I’m pretty sad
I didn't even ask her for it's name

O Bonnie why’d you bring me news like this
O Bonnie why’d you bring me news like this
