A-fishing on the lake;
He knew a trick to catch 'em quick,
Had proper traps" to take;
But, sad to state he lost his bait,
And rain gave him Il chill;
Instead of bass he cutched a glass
At night he had his fill;
The more he shook. the more he took
OF liquid nourishment,
TIL on bed he fell like lead
With cash and vigor spent
He had dream, which made II seem
That he was I'm the brakes,

Was fierce until he woke:
But slaughtered snakes with the brakes
