The Killjoy

The Killjoy
3205

Although a fellow’s down and out,
Why, matters might be worse;
And he can keep up courage stout
With nothing in his purse
A chap can be light-hearted, then,
Although he has to toll;
But life is just a desert when
A fellow has a boil

A chap can be both bright and gay Without & friend on earth,
And though he slaves for scanty pay
Be bubbling o’er with mirth
As cheerful as the blithecoms wren
Senne bear this mortal coll,
But life is just a desert when
A fellow has a bolt
