They called it that she made in France,

And ever' night she'd git

Great piles o' flowers, roses and sich,

O' yaller, red and white;

And ever' time she danced she fetched

Ten thousan' francs a night!

But Jim—poor Jim! our lazy boy—

He did'nt fare so well;

He's good in larnin', but, somehow,

His paper didn't sell.
