OLD
FOLKS
Remember, old folks are worth a fortune,
with the SILVER in their hair, GOLD in their teeth,
STONES in their kidneys, LEAD in their feet, and GAS in their stomachs.
I have become a little older since I saw you last, and a few changes
have come into my life since then.
Frankly, I have become quite a frivolous old gal. I am seeing
FIVE gentlemen every day.
As soon as I wake up WILL POWER helps me get out of bed. Then I
go to see JOHN.
Then CHARLIE HORSE comes along, and when he is here he takes up a lot
of my time and attention.
When he leaves ARTHUR RITIS shows up and stays the rest of the
day. He doesn't like to stay in one place too long, so he takes
me from joint to joint.
After such a busy day I'm really tired and glad to go to bed with BEN
GAY.
WHAT A LIFE!!!!
P.S. ~~~~~~
The preacher came to call
the other day. He said at my age I should be thinking about the
hereafter. I told him, 'OH, I DO, all the time. No matter
where I am, in the parlor, upstairs, in the kitchen, or down in the
basement. I ask myself, now.
"WHAT AM I HERE AFTER?"
