Maud married a man without some “soap”—
He vas lazy doo—but she did hope
Dot he’d get bedder when shildren came;
But vhen dey had, he vas yoost der same.
Und ofden now dem dears vill come
As she sits alone ven her day’s vork’s done,
Und dinks of der day Hans called her “my dear,”
Und asked her for a glass of bier;
But she don’d comblain, nor efer has,
Und only says, “Dot coodn’t vas.”
