I guess I'll liook it for the day. That
business world must learn
When toil refuses to abate that e'en a
worm wilt turn
And when a man works all the time?j
~ say, kid, now ain't it right ??
Fate plays him for a sucker?and he's
always there to bite.
But when with nature he's attuned,
he'll play and never tire.
Yes! In the music of the spheres you'll
find the angle lyre!
(Excuse ine,madam! One flight higher!
1 did not c a|| the gent a liar!)
Mow for my rod and can o* bait! Let
dickie birdies sing!?
Your uncle's goin' fishin !
Work was made for slaves? I think
Work is on the rinky dink!
Ain't you fel ers sort o' wishin'!
For a chanst ter go a-tishin'!?
Hear the line the water swishin'!?
Ah, the man who goes a-fiishin' is a king!
