You may have gotten this question before, but do you know the rest of the nantucket story?

No, I have not gotten this question before; thank you for finally asking!

To answer said question: yes, I know both the dirty and the clean versions. Oddly enough, I actually learned the dirty version long before I even knew there was a clean one. When I was younger, my Mom used to recite it to me, as it had been recited to her by her father when she was a little girl:

(NB: the “****”s are pronounced as muffled noises)

There once was a man from Nantucket

Whose **** was so long he could **** it.

He said with a grin

As he wiped off his chin,

"If my ear was a **** I could **** it!"

Having a terrible sense of humor is a proud family tradition which we take very seriously.
