DIERDRE

Her real first name was Mary
They called her Dierdre just the same
She was mischievous as a fairy
She had hair as red as flame

Dierdre was born of Irish folks
From the British Isles she came
She was fond of artichokes
And ate them with wild game

Her beauty was known far and wide
She had beauty and looks to kill
Finally she was to be a bride
And marry an Irishman she called Bill

Bill and Dierdre, a perfect match
They live a life of thrills
Dierdre was the perfect catch
And William paid all the bills
