Years ago I heard a song while driving down the road. Since then I've looked unsuccessfully for the lyrics, artist, and title. It concerns a woman who murdered her husband using poisoned pie. The only detail I remember is that she told the judge it was just desserts. Did I imagine it? Any information will put my mind at ease.
Thanks
Bill

I seem to remember my wife (before she was) singing with her then singing partner about a Poisoned Pastie and the song was about a character called My Boy Willie
Hope that helps a bit

I thought about 'My Boy Billie' , but that does NOT have the 'Just desserts' bit - In fact in the version I have in the last verse the husband is 'Coming over yonder style' !
