Well, the song is kind of offensive. It sounds all nice, until you listen to it.

He’s an ugly fella so the women won’t let him get away with grabbing their p-—y like they would trump.

I hated that line at the time. I was a guy in 1oth grade and thought it was very demeaning to middle class girls.

Here it is, btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG0oBPtyNb0

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife. So, for my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you.

In the summertime when the weather is hot
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine
You got women, you got women on your mind
Have a drink, have a drive
Go out and see what you can find

Four or five lines and you've already got drunk (and horny) driving, prowling, maybe stalking, then comes the sexism and classism.

Not sure I want to know what "make it good in a lay-by" means, but I could venture a guess.

Lots of songs are that way. I am always amazed at the number of people who pay no attention to what the lyrics are saying.

Probably better that way.

Hard to be influenced by lyrics that are not understood.

You want offensive? Try this from the Contours


Some fellas look at the eyes
Some fellas look at the nose Some fellas look at the size
Some fellas look at the clothes
I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if she's underfed
I don't care if her clothes are worn

First I look at the purse!

Some fellas like the smiles they wear
Some fellas like the legs that's all
Some fellas like the style of their hair
Want their waist to be small.
I don't care if their legs are thin
I don't care if their teeth are big
I don't care if their hair's a wig
Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?

First I look at the purse!

Your post #6.

This is the best way for a correction, not to offend anyone. I know the name is a very old Scottish name. A translation of a name for a saint. Famous explorer was Scotsman Mungo Park, drowned in Africa 1806.
