Tom Sayer sat all alone in the Inn
wondering where his Becky Thatcher had been
It was so hard to catch her,
that illusive Becky Thatcher
for she ran away with Huckleberry Finn.
It's not fun being a friend of Finn
Finn thought it fun to have a friend
The friend thought Finn was gonna run
yet Finn said that his running was done
then he ran off with Becky again.
Huckleberry Finn about lost his friend
who sat alone at home in the Inn
Huck asked Tom, please try to forgive me
Tom said, never ever you see
If you run with Becky, it'll be your end
Tom and Becky got married hand in hand
and Huck became Tom's best man
When so said the town preacher
I hope this will teach her
Becky said, I don't understand.
Huckleberry Finn sat all alone in the end
wondering if what is could have been
It was so hard to release her,
he confessed to the preacher
he didn't want to lose his best friend.
The preacher said Huck, it is for the best
and Huck said maybe, I think I'll head west
It took a while for him to realize
that Becky could never civilize
his sad sack soul in a mess.
