Nuptuals

The
pickup roared in off the road and peeled up to the door,
A
cowboy and girl came bustling into the Motel Forty-four,
"This
here is Sue, my luuvin' bride, and I'm her brand new groom,
"We
just got hitched, so we want to rent ourselves a motel room."
"Well," winked the clerk as he got up from where he
had been idle,
"Congratulations! I guess you kids
are going to want the bridal??"
With utmost care, the groom
eyed sweet Sue. He didn't think she'd take a bit,
"Naaw, I'll jest holt on tight t'both her ears 'til she
gits the hang of it."
