MARY MARGARET TRUMAN WAS THE DAUGHTER OF THE PRESIDENT,
LA-DE-DA
SHE LIVED IN THE WHITE HOUSE WITH HER UGLY MOTHER BESS.
HER SOCIAL POSITION WAS NOT VERY HIGH
AND SHE WAS A MEMBER OF I PHELTA THIGH!
BACK IN 1952 WHEN HARRY GOT THE SHOE, LA-DE-DA
THERE WAS NOTHING LEFT FOR MARY MARGARET TO DO.
SO SHE WENT TO MISSOURI TO WORK IN A BREWERY
SO DRINK MORE BEER!
