And didn’t the boys keep Christmas? Well, I’m shoutin’ now they did;
Why, they all got roarin’ full that night just in honor o’ the kid;
And by the time that baby were a little tot o’ three years old,
She had a big tomato can just filled with virgin gold.
I built a cabin ’bout a quarter mile away from Bill’s,
So we both had kinder cozy homes protected by the hills;
And Charley Wong, the Chinaman, had opened handy by
The laundry o’ the canyon, and he washed for Bill and I.
Now, Chinamen ain’t liked too well, and one day in a row
Charley got pretty badly used, I disremember now
