I thought they was honest down here in this
town;
I swow if I hadn’t I wouldn’t come down;
But if cheatin’s their caper I guess there’s idees
That folks up in Augerville have, if ye please.
I’m a pretty straight man when they use me all
square,
But I’m pirut myself at a Pirut-town fair.
I won’t pick their pockets to git back that
dough,
