“I DON'T.”
Most motorists are blooming fools, They trifle with the traffic rules. I don’t. No man should try to get the drop On any seasoned traffic cop. Nor fail to heed his signal to stop. I don’t. A man should never drive too fast, Or brag about the car he’s passed. I don’t. For safety first should be his creed. There really isn’t any need To drive a car at reckless speed. I don’t. A man should never lose his bean When piloting a gas-machine. I don’t. On city street or open road, A man should never break the code. Nor fellow-farers incommode. I don’t. He should not scare equestrians Nor chase the poor pedestrians. I don’t. In fact, 1 have no car to run, I’m shy the coin to purchase one, You’d think I wouldn’t have much fun. I Don't.
