Thread Name: Lyr Req: 'I Once Had a Husband'
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'I Once Had a Husband'
Unlikely candidate, there's a line in the fourth verse of the poem Angel On A Bar-Stool by Cheryl Davis Miller :


Said, 'Well I once had a husband,
little girl, a home and all.
It got old and life seemed empty.
Hey, I heard the wild call.
Looked around and found lots of things,
to fill the lonely hours.
Too late found cheatin', cheated me
sure ain't been hearts and flowers'.
