Little later, you know, I'm gonna do that.
I uh
I'm going to do a song for you that
You know, I flirt a little bit but don't usually only on stage.
I have a very understanding husband
But there's only so much understanding in the world and I'm allowed certain freedoms.
I mean, but I'm not talking about him
It's just the way I feel
however
Ladies, we do know that there are those times
No, that's what it's really about there are times when you really don't want to behave yourself and
No, we have to be honest about I'm always talking about the fellows and the things that they do that are indiscreet
But we hey listen
But there is a way to deal with it.
I can handle it.
I
Know I can listen.
I'm gonna tell you ladies this song because it's a way around all of it
Now, of course, it doesn't work all the time, but it does depend on how well it is done
