Harry's drafted, so is Bill,
All our work is now uphill,
So your order, we're afraid,
May be still a bit delayed.
Still you'll get it, don't be vexed,
Maybe this month, maybe next;
Keep on hoping, don't say die,
You viii get it by and by.
Keep your temper, gentle sir,
Writes the manufacturer,
Though your goods are overdue,
For month or maybe two,
We can't help it, please don't swear,
Labor's scarce and needless rare,
Can't get yarn, can't get dyes,
These are facts-we tell no lies.
