LE VICOMTE DE ROUE D’ENGRENAGE
De ver’ first ting I do for mek my introduce
Is giv’ my nam’, which just the sam’ I tink is good excuse,
Fer tell to you an’ efery wan in my ver’ bess maniere,
So well’s I can, vat kine of man is de bess one I don’t care.
Some fellers ver’ satisfy for mek’ de small depense,
Don’t spend a cent everywhere she’s went. I’m not dat kine of gens.
De more ma debts get bigger, de more I dude’er get,
Fer stay on top you must not stop for trow on style, you bet.
I’m work on the G. T. P., an’ know my own bizness,
