So you just have a nice time, sweetheart. And, oh, tell your lady friend that I've got my thing, my earrings, and they're doing fine. I got the earring outfit where I twirl the earrings around, you know, so I have to turn them around.

And so everything is fine. One little man was little jealous. so he's seen my little John is sitting alongside of me so he ups and outside I said oh he's got something wrong with his leg he can't walk with the leg and he was there to eat you know and he says yeah he says you've got a boyfriend now and everything I said you can be my boyfriend now for a little while I'll let you be my boyfriend so I made a joke out of it But John, the little John, he was a little upset about it.

I said, don't be, I said, you know you were my friend here and you talk with me and everything and let anybody say anything about it. So, well, I'll have to say bye -bye to you, sweetheart, and have a nice Christmas.

So bye -bye, sweetie, yeah.
