Frank was sweet, sent me poetry, But it wasn’t the same as it was on TV. A lonely widow with no place to go, For a time I settled on the Florida coast. Rick and Arlie, they had to go To join the rest of my family’s ghosts. Now Sam was a hard man with a real mean streak, Said women don’t need romance magazines. But I showed him with his last coffee, And now they can do anything they like with me. Take it easy, don’t worry, I’ll be fine in here. I’m sure I’ll find my perfect mate yet And my conscience is clear. Didn’t do it for the money, in truth I was bored. Nobody writes to me any more. Cigarettes and prison walls Will keep me company til I meet the Lord. And Lord knows that Oh oh oh, I haven’t been a perfect wife. I’m a lonely heart, looking for the real romance of my life.
