Madam’s Past History

suprusr 0

My name is Johnson–
Madam Alberta K.
The Madam stands for business.
I’m smart that way.

I had a
HAIR-DRESSING PARLOR
Before
The depression put
The prices lower.

Then I had a
BARBECUE STAND
Till I got mixed up
With a no-good man.

Cause I had a insurance
The WPA
Said, We can’t use you
Wealthy that way.

I said,
DON’T WORRY ‘BOUT ME!
Just like the song,
You WPA folks take care of yourself–
And I’ll get along.

I do cooking,
Day’s work, too!
Alberta K. Johnson–
Madam to you.
