I have to wonder how many of those sorority ladies ordered the grilled chicken caesar and iced tea, only to pick at it and later vomit what they did eat.
Agreed. 16,206 sorority women. Dinner. Hell, that's two-and-a-half pounds of food.
I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob
Who used to steal gamble and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday
That Bob got locked up Sunday
They've got him in the jailhouse way down town
He's in the jailhouse now he's in the jailhouse now
I told him once or twice quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
