vouch for that

I don't need everything to me dear

took care of a few things myself

Oh you mean world of goods and said yeah

and uh the fact is uh he's got strength

enough for 12. I'll bounce for that

shorty darling I'm sorry I mistrusted

you you're almost gonna hit you with a

rolling pin but instead I

[Music]

mean

can't hit me with that rolling pin I

want to see whether I got the best or

the worst of that

[Music]
