When they left, he was hale and strong
Had all the girls fit to marry
And what we got back you could've put in your hat
And was hardly fit to bury
The bend in your back and the marital act
Whether or not you plan to marry
Hump has three meanings, maybe four
For him, it meant to carry
What he was born with and was given
What he earned and what he found
What he figured out for himself
And what he picked up off the ground
And at last, what he imagined
So, remember him as he was: hale and strong
Would never run from a fight
And not the sad thing that blew out his brains
In the kitchen Wednesday night
