And collar and hames OF gold
The second one was a commodore.

Rub-a-dub. dub. three men in a tub,
OFF TO the war they went:
The weight Of the tub was so yery

The ocean was badly bent
The captain spake to the admiral.
Vow whittier away" quoth he.
And the admiral. after scratching his

said: shiver my light. search me
They never had tried the tub before;
Twas a dreadnaught tub. you know
And so 1t was rather hard to tell
Whether up or down they'd go.
