Ballad of a Cherry Pie

We met by yonder cherry tree.
I glanced at her she winked at me.
I offered her a slice of pie.
How could I know our love would die?
After a bite, her watery eyes
Gazed at me; she gave a cry
And gagged; she turned and ran away.
I have not seen her since that day.
You see I like my pie with spice.
Chili powder tasted so nice?
But my love I lost, so now I cry...
Say, would you like a piece of pie?
