[E]
Ramona [A] lived just down the [E] hill from us.
She kept the house, her mama [B] drove the bus, an old yellow school bus.
[A] Ramona had a handicap, [E] the neighborhood knew well.
Ramona [B] couldn't speak or [E] couldn't spell, which put Ramona at a considerable disadvantage
among the more fluent.
Although she [A] couldn't write and [E] couldn't talk, Ramona really had a [B] pretty walk, a four-letter figure.
[A] Because she couldn't write or speak, [E] nobody asked her out, but Pat I.
[B] Thompson hung around [E] the house.
He was what you might say a familiar figure in the neighborhood.
I guess their [A] handicaps were [E] common ground, for Pat I.
Thompson always [B] hung around.
[A] He could squint that eye and [E] spit tobacco thirty feet.
Ramona [B] always grinned and [E] stomped her feet.
But Doug Ramona considered that to be one of the better local acts.
One day [A] Ramona found [E] herself with child.
She couldn't speak, her mom was [B] going wild.
[A] Confusion reigned for half a [E] day, as one could understand.
The county [B] judge came down to [E] take a hand.
And I think it should be noted here, in the interest of justice, that the judge was acting
in a strictly unofficial capacity.
And the neighbors gathered [A] round [E] Ramona's porch.
The judge said, understand [B] this is not a court.
[A] Ramona stood as all the [E] breathless neighbors gathered round.
Then she closed one eye and [B] spat upon the [Em] ground.
[G] [E] And it's a familiar old saying that birds of a feather will flock together.
And justice will be done.
