QOetrp,
SHE SIMPLY COULDN'T

She could sing and she could play,
She could dance from night till day,
She could while the hours away,
So It's said.
She could skate and she could paint,
She could play the patron saint,
But she couldn't and she wouldn't
Make bed.
She could walk eight miles day
And play tennis charminGly,
Flirting in saucy way,
Little scamp!
She could drive and play base bail,
She could make stylish call,
But She could't and she wouldn't
Clean lamp.
She could swim and she could row,
She could always have beau,
And I'm sure that we all know
She was shy.
She could laugh and she could prance,
She could play a game of chance,
But she couldn't and she wouldn't
Make pie.
She could etch and write book.
She could vanquish with LOOK,
She could win by hook or crook,
confess.
She could scold and she could flout.
She could cry and she could pout,
Bnt she couldn't and she wouldn't
Make dress.
She could talk of church affairs.
But knew naught of household cares;
Still I'm sure that none compares
With sweet Nan.
Even if she couldn't bake
Bred and pies and angel cake,
She enraptured and she captured
A rich man.
