Poor Johnny Goodman

Poor Johnny Goodman
Sitting in his apple tree
Waiting for the sun to set
Soon on his misery

Poor Johnny Goodman
Looking at the sky
Hoping for the twilit hours
To quickly pass him by

Poor Johnny Goodman
Trembling fingers double check
And tighten up the coils
Of the rope around his neck

POST-EDIT:

Poor Johnny Goodman: sitting in his apple tree,
waiting for the sun to set on his misery;

Poor Johnny Goodman: looking at the sky,
hoping for the twilit hours to quickly pass him by;

Poor Johnny Goodman: trembling fingers double check
and tighten up the coils of the rope around his neck.
