No woman wants to know anything;

A womans logic moves backward
Just like a crawtish. but it doesn't go
so straight.
Give woman your love and she will
overlook some mighty serious moral
deficiencies.
Maybe some men don't tell lies be-
cause they know nobody would believe
them under any circumstances.
Lots of men who would never dream
