My Holiday?
I'm off to see mv farmer friend Who dwells up Central way; I'll slave among his cows and pigs And helD him with his hav, And will he do as much himself'* THAT will be the day! But I don't mind, I'm built like that I've simnly got to toil; My mission is of course to help This son of Central soilBut when I think of what he does My blood begins to boil. He turns the irrigation off And then he turns it on; . The water stops, the beer begins And soon the farmer's gone—- , But I remain behind to work And quiet flows the Don.
