Mary had little home
 A mile or two from town; Life to her wasn't so hot
 And neither up nor down. She spent her days in dull routine
 Just morning noon, then night, Year after year nothing happened
 To change Mary's woeful plight. Came day law was passed,
 Mary thought long and hard; Said she, it's time to strikel
 Now wasn't she the card? She up and took desperate chance
 Dug into her savings with fear; With due or die gesture hung out her sign MEALS SERVED HEREWITH BEER.
