There or Ever Will (continued)

There or Ever Will (continued)

     by The Right Dishonourable Mr. Wrung


to be no man but just a boy

the wives will not have given for

they will recall it all

if ever he should evermore

go drinking with a —ore

so where are we oh yes I see

about the bluegrass boys

they travel sing and entertain

and then go home once more

so take this lesson learn it well

and never ask me for

another bio for your mag

i will not send it o’er

this said small snippet gladly left

and got into his digs

he barked his need he licked himself

and prayed his way to bed

when he awoke he found that he

had licked his derrière 

but he told none and no one asked

it seemed that no one cared

go home sweet prince and spend your time

as you alone see fit

don’t do what others tell you to

but only as you wish

so saying snippet got into

a waggon drawn by doves

and off he flew and soon drew near

where he had lost his gloves

he saw them from on high and said

in no uncertain tone

there are the devils swoop down now

and give me back my own

they did as he commanded them

and soon he got back in

then off they went and he got home

and drank a quart of gin

yes off they went and he got home

and drank a quart of gin.
