When you heal a Teller braggin' on his
honesty and SIGH,
When he says If he'd been crooked he
would certainly be rich.
When he blows about the chances he
has had to beat his pards,
just make u that you believe him,
but ont fail to cut the cards.
When you hear a Teller spoutin' on the

When he says it is dead easy for to

When he tells you that he's boss YOU

It's his wife that wears the trousers.
and it's him that a the skirts.
When 0 hear a Teller tellin' how to

That he hasn't got the gumption for
