Thoae Modest City Farmers

Those Modest City Farmers
TIE ides Of March is here again,
Wen take her to our arms,
Wen close our winter quarters,
And hike out for the farms.
And when spring weather fits away
And summer rolls around,
Wen pack our farming toggery,
And hustle back to town.
And ere the days of frost arrive,
Wen run up some great scores,
By telling every gink we meet,
We saved the world once more.
