STRONGER SEX
Who is really the stronger sex?
The guy from Dallas named Big Boy Tex?
​
Or the tough guy with the beard?
Or the one who is mightily feared?
Or the handsome man who can melt a glacier?
Or the guy who pounds down a shot and a chaser?
Or the cop with a badge and a gun
Or the clever dude who thinks life is fun
Or who impregnates women then runs for the hills
Or who swallows bourbon with a bottle of pills
Or who is smart as a fox
and who knows how to box
Or is it the single mother of three
The one who avoids liquor but loves herbal tea
The one who never sleeps and has three jobs
The one who would protect her children from angry mobs
​
The one who would take a bullet for her kids
The one who lost a child due to SIDS
The one who washes dishes at an all-night dive
The one who will do what it takes to survive
​
The one who punched a truck driver for molesting her child
The one who smashed his head against the restroom tile
Or the hunk with big muscles to flex
Or the man who picked on the wrong sex
