Whistler's Husband

Here's another story that might be true

Or at least that's what I've been told

Don't tell my wife I told you this

Or I just won't live to grow old

It happened about twenty-nine years ago

Well, give or take a day

Now listen close to this story I'll tell

For it happened just this way

I met this girl back in nineteen-eighty

She was as fine as she could be

Well, I just couldn't stop checking her out

And she was looking back at me

I asked her for a date, and she said, "Sure"

So I took her to the picture show

We were sitting pretty close, while sharing a coke

When they turned those lights down low

In the pitch black dark my ears begin to ring

I heard a whistle that was loud and clear

So I told my date that I'll be right back

As my finger finally found my ear

I crammed that thing in knuckles deep

When I noticed that the whistle was gone

'Til I sit back down and the whistle came back

And that's when I started to yawn

So that's when it hit me like a ton of bricks

"This chicks got a hearing aid"

'Cause everytime that I'd lean away

That whistle would start to fade

Well, I thought I should be a gentleman

So that's when I started to (YELL)

I scared the girl nearly half to death

And out of the seat she fell

She said, "What's wrong with you, are you crazy?

I said, "I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULDN'T HEAR"

She said, "Please stop screaming at the top of your voice,

Can't you see that I'm standing right here?"

Well, that's how it happened when I met my wife

And that's how this story goes

She had a real bad cold that night we met

And the whistle was coming from her nose
