A New Subject-K Kissing
Written for Evening Journal
BY James T. Crozler.

A lady said to me today
Here is a subject new,
do not think / ever read
One like IL come from you
And that is kissing. sure it's nice
Between a girl and man,
Now tell us what you think Of Il
The very best you can.
Well. lot me say that she was right,
That's one I've never had.
But when l think of other days
l do feel kind OF glad
To know that I do think OF time
When such was given TO ME.
But that was many years ago,
Before I climbed a tree.
Well I'll call the thing gum sucking
When a couple has it bad,
II they have not eat onions
It's the worst they ever had
They never do their cour.ing
On the lawn or in a park,
They do prefer the parlor
And they like to have that dark.
There is but one cure in this world,
And that is often done.
That is 10 find some preacher man
To make two people one:
And that quite often cures tho thing.
At least what I've been told.
While many couples keep Il up
Until they're very lid.
Now let me say that kissing
Was a subject new TO me,
/ hope with what I've said Of II
This lady will agree.
But could my years roll back again
Till / was twenty-four.
