He Made Her Hair Curl

There once was fellow could really jump But his arms were blown off, left with two stumps When with a new girl He made her hair curl He would dive in there, knees first, for a hump The girl said, "Please, dear, don't do that; it hurts! And your bare knees are just covered with dirt" But the jumper's reply: "I'm a civilized guy Not a stuffed-shirt or a mud-caked pervert!"
