The verse that Bill Haley amended to comply with good taste was originally: You wear those dresses, the sun comes shinin' through, You wear those dresses, the sun comes shinin' though, I can't believe all that mess belongs to you........ Pretty sure that's how it went. The 'one eyed cat' line was overlooked for some reason! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Awake 502 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 "You'd Never Get Away with It Nowadays". Thou's obviously not a Yorkshire man Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives duties. The first man had married a woman from Albania, and bragged that he had told his wife she was going to do all the dishes and house cleaning that needed doing at their home. He said that it took a couple days but on the third day he came home to a clean house and the dishes were all washed and put away. The second man had married a woman from Brazil. He bragged that he had told his wife she was going to do all the cleaning, dishes, and the cooking. He told them that the first day he didn't see any results, but the next day it was better. By the third day, his house was clean, the dishes were done, and he had a huge dinner on the table. The third man had married a Yorkshire lass. He boasted that he told her that her duties were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot food on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see anything, but by the third day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye.
