Baldheaded End Of A Broom

Oh love is such a very funny thing

It catches the young and old

It's just like a plate of boardinghouse hash

To many a man it is sold

It makes you feel like a fresh water eel

Causes your head to swell

You'll lose your mind for love is blind

It empties your pocket book as well

Oh boys, stay away from the girls, I say

Oh give them lots of room

They'll find you and you'll wed

And they'll bang you till you're dead

With the bald headed end of a broom

When a man is a going on a pretty little girl

His love is firm and strong

But when he has to feed them on hash

His love won't last so long

With a wife and seven half starved kids

Boys I'll tell you it is no fun

When the butcher comes around to collect his debts

With a dog and a double barreled gun

Oh boys, stay away from the girls, I say

Oh give them lots of room

They'll find you and you'll wed

And they'll bang you till you're dead

With the bald headed end of a broom

When your money is gone and your clothing in hock

You'll find the old saying it is true

That a mole on the arm's worth two on the legs

But what is he going to do

Oh boys, stay away from the girls, I say

Oh give them lots of room

They'll find you and you'll wed

And they'll bang you till you're dead

With the bald headed end of a broom
