A young couple got married and left on their honeymoon.
When they got back, the bride immediately called her mother.
- Well, how was the honeymoon? - asked the mother.
- Oh mamma! - she exclaimed.
- The honeymoon was wonderful! So romantic!
No sooner had she spoken the words than she burst out crying.
- But mamma . . . as soon as we returned, Sam started using the most horrible language. He's been saying things I've never heard before! All these awful 4-letter words! You've got to come get me and take me home... please mamma!
- Now Sarah . . . - her mother answered.
- Calm down! Tell me, what could be so awful? What 4-letter words has he been using?
- Please don't make me tell you, mamma - wept the daughter.
- I'm so embarrassed! They're just too awful! You've got to come get me and take me home... please mamma!
- Darling, baby, you must tell me what has you so upset . . . Tell your mother these horrible 4-letter words!
Still sobbing, the bride replied:
- Oh, mamma . . . words like dust, wash, iron, and cook!
