NE w SLETS
There are two things that vex my soul:
The price OF beef-the price OF coal,
Two things that bring my thrift 10 grief;
The price OF coal the price OF beef.
On life's highway a crushing toll
Is cost of beef is cost OF coal.
OF labors wrongs they are tho chief,
The cost OF coal and cost OF beef
Then play a heartiess. bastard role
Who corner beef and corner coal;
He on earth the meanest thief
Who robs the poor OF coal and beef
