Or save his cash till he’d enough

To buy some more of fencin’-stuff;

Then, ef his wife she’d ask the gump

Ef he wouldn’t kinder try to hump

Hisself to t’other side the door,

So she c’d come an’ sweep the floor,

He’d look at her with mournful eyes,

An’ say, “I’ve gotter flosserfize.”

An’ so he’d set an’ flosserfize

’Bout what it wuz held up the skies,
