Logic and Spotted Dog

"I do!" I yells, "I mean—I don't—I..." Oh Gaw spare me days!
When you argue wiv a woman she 'as got you either ways!
You 'ave to do it in the end; an' so I licks the dirt,
An' sez, "Dear, I apolergise. I'm—sorry—if I 'urt."
Yes, I'm marri'd to a woman. An' she smiles, an' strokes me 'air,
An'—leaves it there.
