Department Store Gossip

“Lizzie went out with that floorwalker clown,

She said he was filled full of booze

And made her get out and walk back to town,

But there wasn’t no mud on her shoes.

“Far be it from me to run a girl down,

Mistakes I will always excuse,

But when one declares she walked back to town

I look for the mud on her shoes.”
