It's simple and childish old world.
And good, when its weakness you learn
It likes to be liked, more than any
thing else.
And it's willing to like in return.
We've called it hard names for SO long
And told Of its faults without end,
That it's just bit hardened and crus.
ty on top,
But it's glad to be friend to friend.
And, come to take stock OF the world.
You've really no cause to stand off;
You're just like the rest OF it, fun OF
the faults
AZ which it's 50 easy to scoR.
And you'll find when you're lonesome
at times,
As along LIES journey you wend,
Z youll warm your own heart and be
good to the world,
It's glad to be friends to a friend.

the railroad thirty pounds OF plank twenty stx
