' Whit Carver

Whit Carver lived not far away; He%i'run a farm (into the ground). And when came time to put in hay, For sure Whit Carver cane around

To all the fame to ask for work

Sat in our kitchens with solenn eyes, Fighting hard to hide his smirk, 'Ielling the most outrageous lies. And as Whit Carver worked about,

He cackled and crowed and bobbed his head, While his tongue found all our follies out,

For on such things his hunger fed.

"Look at the hair on Maggie Jack! GodlButshecandrink likeaman

And Duncan is takin' the woman back Though he says that he don't give a dam.

Red Nick's got freckles on his arse —.- Or that's what Flora Allie said.

And it's her should know, of course.- She's seen the insides of his bed." _

"Ah, that Whit is good for a laugh!" We said, and-snickered at his jokes; Separated the grain from his chaff; Bought“ him his bottle when he was broke.

And so the day Whit Carver died

Was marked down as a great event. . And Whit was waked, but no one cried Was buried, but nobody went.
