ikissdhimbck: (Wild Wild West)
"I wish he would make up his mind, ma, /
For I don’t care much longer to wait; /
I’m sure I have hinted quite strongly, /
That I thought about changing my state; /
For a sweetheart he’s really so backward, /
I can’t bring him out if I try; /
I own that he’s very good temper’d, /
But then he’s so dreadfully shy; /
I own that he’s very good temper’d, /
But then he’s so dreadfully shy!"


She snickers; it's astounding how such an innocent ballad can be so tawdry when joined by hoots and hollers and wolf-whistling, the shake of ruffled skirts and the flash of stockinged thighs )
