But wasn't there
A night on a summer
Long gone by
We passed a couple
Wrangling away
And did I not say
Merlyn what if
That chap were I
And did he not
Give counsel
And say
What was it
Now
My mind's a wall
Ah yes
Now I recall
How to handle
A woman
There's a way
Said the wise
Old man
A way known by
Every woman
Since the whole
Rig'marole began
Do I flatter her
I begged him answer
Do I threaten
Or cajole
Or plead
Do I brood
And play
The gay romancer
Said he smiling
No indeed
How to handle
A woman
Mark me well and
I'll tell you sir
The way to
Handle a woman
Is to love her
Simply love her
Merely love her
Love her
Love her
What's wrong Jenny
Where are you
These days
What you thinking
I don't understand
You
But no matter
Merlyn told me once
Never to be too
Upset if I didn't
Understand what a
Woman was thinking
They don't do it
Very often
But what do you do
While they're
Doing it
How to handle
A woman
Mark me well
And I'll tell you sir
The way to handle
A woman
Is to love her
Simply love her
Merely love her
Love her
Just love her
