Highway Robbery

Highway robbery isn’t what it used to be

When your Highwayman –  is a she

She has some style – and she has some grace

And she rides like a fury – our horses outpaced

 

The mail and some bullion –

From the driver she received

And then of my purse and my watch

I was next relieved

 

She was courteous and civil all the while

But it doesn’t diminish that her crimes are vile

What has happened to the women of today

When your very own daughter could treat you this way?
