Lyr Req: She can't strike a match in the dark ...

Subject: HELP on LYRICS to OLD NOVELTY SONG
From: Gene Graham

Have pieces of old time NOVELTY tunes running thru my mind...

This one is about the difference between a man and a woman!

She can't strike a match in the dark like a man

'Cause she just ain't built that way;

And she can't jump over a fence like a man

'Cause she just ain't built that way.

From around the 40's.....

WOW!

Has been 8 years ago since I posted that...

The TUNE is fixed solidly in my mind, but I only recall those two snip-ets of the song and do not recall the actual title or
whodunnit...

I keep hoping...

Thanks Jim, for the reminder...
