Dirty Mandolin
She plays a dirty mandolin
stumbling fingers, and loaded humdingers.
A euphonious sin.


~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Note: I have always pronounced "stumbling" as a three syllable word, and I still believe that is the correct count. However, I added the extra syllable because Google says it's only 2 syllables, even though stumble (2 syllables) plus "ing" (1 syllable) equals 3, and I've never in my life heard anyone pronounce it as stum-bling...okay, angry rant over.
