My dear sisters down the bay,

For we are much older than you,
And we have railroad, too.
You got very proud one day,
And from Prospect ran away,
Were it not for Prospect, too,
The railroad could not get to you.
We live here in humble way,
Earning our board from day to day,
But, my sisters, tell you true,
That we do not envy you.

And to the men who dig the bitches
May it always bring good cheer,
And none of us have aught to fear.
