when you git home, and the wife
gives you the inkwiring eye, don't
make no crack about where you've
been, or what time it is, nor nuthing
like that
make some chatty little remark
that ain't got nuthing to do with her
or you or what you've been doing and
you'll get by without a scratch
so bill he went home, and when
he came into their room, his wife set
up in bed and yawned and said hello,
bflly
if the poor slob hadent said nuthing
at all, he would of been all rite, but
he remembers what this other fish
had .told Trim

looks at his wife with two eyes that is
just as loving and tender as a couple
of poached eggs, and he says
estelle, m' dear, he says, 'stell,
wasent that nawful thing happened
to mary, queen of scots
well, it's all over now, he has still
got his home, and maybe he will be
