Rollicky Rhymes

[p. 27]

Kennst Du das Land?

Knowest thou the land
of the hill-billy band
where the slodderfox trots out his wings

where the elebirds's ants
in canaryphant pants
sing twenty-one God shave the kings?

If thou knowst, wilt thou please
pack thy pig-skin valease
and let us be off to that land

there to live till we die
of the Martinis dry
which the Yankees have left on the strand
