Liberty At the San Diego Zoo

Sailors go to the San Diego zoo,

looking for pretty girls who go there too.

Sugared monkeys a good time,

always tossing plenty grime,

by reaching behind and throwing at you!

Thar she blows, mate. Another one flying your way! Very funny, John. My brother was in the Navy in San Diego and we visited him there and went to this amazing zoo. Really enjoyed the memories you brought back of the sailors strolling through the zoo and looking for ladies. Love, Carolyn
