Damphoolishness

The woodry-blee pipes oolie-goo,

While on the brinkers grimes the moo.

God save the King, the soldiers cried,

And then they took a trolley ride.

A rooster crowed upon the hill,

His name was William--she called him Bill.

’Twas bitter cold at Valley Forge,

But nothing ever rattled George.

The berries were growing on the vine,

Three times thirteen is thirty-nine.

* * * * *

Out in the kitchen a maiden fair

Plucked from the hash a golden hair.

* * * * *

Woman’s hair--beautiful hair,

What words of praise I’d utter;

But, oh, how sick it makes me feel

To find it in my butter.
