Gum and a Mint From Your Pocket

The thought of meeting the love of your life Can cause you to lose your cool Stumbling over words and fidgeting about Just like a boy out of school It's a common reaction, it happens all over We're all just following the rules That surely were laid down many years ago But it's still not kosher to drool You open her door and bash her poor head Embarrassed, you apologize profusely You offer her gum and a mint from your pocket And tell her she's a sweet li'l floozie She looks at you strangely for that response You barrel forth not blinking an eye Just wanting to impress this gorgeous young lady It gets worse the more that you try In spite of the blunders and embarrassing stuff Somehow she thinks it's all cute The more you stumble and trip on your words She loves you, you big galoot To cut it short, she's my gorgeous bride Although many long years have now passed A lot of water's flowed under the bridge But she's still got a fabulous ass!!! © Jack Ellison 2015
