Scratch Where it Itches

I

There was a gal named Ida Mae :
When she was seventeen,
She went to Atlantic City
To become a Beauty Queen.

She could sing just like an Angel,
An’ her figger shore did please-
But then she started scratchin’
Like an ol’ houn’ dog with fleas !

Chorus

Scratch where it itches-
Right down in yer britches;
Scratch where it itches-
An’ not where it looks the best !

II

Oh, it musta been contagious ,
Or somethin’ in the air –
‘Cause all of them Contestants
Started itchin’ everywhere !

They had to stop the Pageant :
All the Judges hollered “Whoa !”
When lovely Miss America
Scratched herself from head to toe !

Chorus

Scratch where it itches-
Right down in yer britches;
Scratch where it itches-
An’ not where it looks the best !

III

There’s a moral to this story-
Now that we’ve had our fun :
Folks are pretty much the same
After all is said and done.

There’s times you can’t be subtle-
When you gotta be direct:
When you gotta scratch even though it ain’t
Politically correct !

Chorus

You gotta scratch where it itches :
Right down in your britches-
You gotta scratch where it itches,
An’ not where it looks the best !

There was a young lady from Natchezs
Whose garments were always in patches
When comments arose
on the state of her clothes
She drawled when I itches I scratches

I saw a gal that scratched all the time. Found out she had crabs.

Groin chiggers, no remedy.

I knew a girl once who had crabs. She got rid of them by squatting over a mirror. All the crabs thought it was a new ass and jumped on it.
