IS in fine fix. Boon is hustler
and don't give the grass time. to
grow. We wonder why he don't
Start nice dairy and poultry yard,
as this suburban home is just the
right distance from town and they
have several very fine milk COWS
and lots of nice chickens. We ven
ture to say he would make lots OF
money,as he never fails IN anything
he undertakes.
There is a fellow not far away
Who often mas ledp W say,
And from the public draws a bounty,
For he is the high sheriff OF the county,
AS he strolled out once on tramp
He saw what seemed to be gypsy's
camp,
And as he had plenty of money in gold
He longed to have his fortune told,
And to the camp this sheriff went
To have his fortune told was bent,
Now Jimmie was so very green
A Gypsy, he had never seen.
He said he lived not very far,
And that he was a WidOWer,
And if a fortune she could tell
He would certainly pay her we'll.
About this time a breeze passed by
And blew the Gipsy's curtains high,
And in the next tent he did spy
Cousin Gypsy and Old Rusti.
And when he rallied from his swoon
He said goodbye Gyp-I'm going home;
And at distant mark of green
Showed where Jimmie was last seen.
