Chastushka

CHASTUSHKA – two Hopak is a Russian dance But it is too fast for me No! I prefer the six-pack And a damsel on my knee Please dear Lulu marry me I am your slave on my knees I love you so want to shout Not for love but for the gout

PS are you serious about the fireflies, you can only see them in the country there? When I revisited Iowa a few years ago,I could see them in the city like when i was young. It was wonderful. Thanks for your comments today as always, DAver!
