It's funny that when you whisper in girls
ear she always grabs a-hold of your hand.
When girl sees u man she thinks she
would like to pet, sooner or later she is sure
to kiss him.
A woman always seems to think man cal
make over a stovepipe hat as easily as she
can fix up her last years bonnet.
After girl has quarreled with man sht
