MOOSE SONG
>
Tune:  Sweet Betsy from Pike (aka: Villikins and His Dinah)
>
Short version from ZiPpY's collection. Additional verses
>from Flying Booger, Aloha H3, and Satan, Pittsburg H3.
>
>

CHORUS:
>(sung while making antlers on head with hands):

>Moose, moose, I love a moose,
>
I've never had anything quite like a moose,
>
My life has been merry,
>
My women been loose,
>
But nothing compares to the love of a moose.
>


>When I'm in the mood for a very fine lay,
>
I go to the closet and pull out some hay,
>
I open the window and spread it around,
>
Because moose will come running when there's hay on the ground.
>


>Harriers' verses:
>
>
When I was a young lad I played with the girls,
>
I'd fondle their titties and twirl their curls,
>
But my true love ran off with a classmate named Bruce,
>
I never got treated that way by a moose.
>


>Women like pearls and diamonds and cars,
>
I spend all my money on them in bars,
>
But a moose is content to be tied to a tree,
>
While I find other mooses to satisfy me.
>


>Now I've made it with all kinds of beasties with hair,
>
I'd make it with snakes if their fangs were not there,
>
I've made it with walrus, two ducks and a goose,
>
But I've never had anything quite like a moose.
>


>Now gorillas are fine for a Saturday night,
>
And lions and tigers, they puts up a fight,
>
But it just ain't the same when you slams your caboose
>
As the feeling you gets when you humps with a moose.
>


>Harriettes' verses:
>


>All my past lovers did brag about size,
>
Those tales of twelve inches were nothing but lies,
>
But a moose is the size that a man ought to be,
>
That's why from now on it's mooses for me.
>


>When I was much younger I read dirty books,
>
I stroked myself with each gazing look,
>
But nothing can make my eyes start to twinkle,
>
Then getting it off with that stud Bullwinkle.
>


>Now that I'm older and into my years,
>
I'll have you know that I shed no tears,
>
While I sit by the fire with a glass of Mateus,
>
Playing hide the salami with Marvin the Moose.
>




For those not recognizing "Sweet Betsy from
  Pike/Villikins and His Dinah" by their titles
>alone, a cross reference to what may be a more
>familiar use of the tune may be helpful.  The tune
>is the same as that used for "Charlotte the Harlot",
>"Farting Contest", and "Lupe (Loopy) the Mexican
> Whore".  The melody is quite common and widely known.
>
>In fact, Ed Cray writes in "The Erotic Muse - American
>Bawdy Songs" (University of Illinois Press, 1990) that:
>"The Villikins melody that carries 'Charlotte' is the
>most used 'come-all-ye' in Anglo-American balladry.
>A numbing profusion of songs travels on the tune and
>its variants..."
>
>I'm therefore reasonably certain that you know the tune
>since so many songs, both dirty and clean, use it.  If
>you don't know it, simply ask around hash circles for
>"Loopy", and once you hear a fragment of the tune you'll
>no doubt have instant recognition.
