Love is: Being mauled by a Quaker Bear I been mauled by a Quaker Bear I was run over by a midnight train And onced I had myself a surgery in my brain… No, I ain’t had no time fer lovin… No time fer pertendin’ with them women folk… No sir! I’m superpoor man, and they ain’t no woman Wants a superpoor man…. They be wantin’ a new car, and a new house With indoor plummin’ HA! What they think?I got me a money tree? No thank you mammozell… You can take yer dog-gone high falutin’ Idears and go straight to Hades…(G-rated) I be a livin just fine-and-dandy Me and my old huntin’ dog fetch… Yes-sir-re-bob… That there lovie-dovie stuff Is a might near too complicated fer me… I’ll just sit here on my front porch Playin’ my gittar and rockin’ in my ol chair… HA! Love is fer them darn bugs… |

"I be a livin just fine-and-dandy Me and my old huntin’ dog fetch…" And so this tells me now that you're living with love, my friend - unconditional love! Thanks for the chucke though - enjoyed the read! |
