"'Tain't me-" says the farmer,

"'Tain't me- says the packer;

To pay a small profit,
AS fair as can be-"
And all of them chorus
Together, "'Tain't me-
"'Tain't me-" says the tanner,
''Who gets the high price.
For high shoes and low ones,
For slippers and ties
"'Tain't me-" says the rancher;
81 live, and that's ALL"
"'Tain't me-" says the dealer;
my profits are small"
"'Tain't me-" says the Gamer;

Who's bracin' the game"
faint me-" says the gardener;
I'm poor all the time
"'Tain't me-" says the grocer;
81 amt seen a dime"
It's surely a puzzle
To know where it goes;
No maker or seller
Or any of those
Partake of high prices,
So they all agree;
And I'm a consumer,
I'm certain "'tain't me-"
