Oh, I love to milk the gentle cow, as she chews her cud with placid brow, and I love to rise at early morn, to barge through muck in the chilly dawn. Yes, I love the milking game all through, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, too. I love the Hick of the untied tail and the restless hoof that kicks the pail, the splash of milk is as sweet to me as the song of birds in fuschia tree. When the sun sinks low in the western sky I stretch my limbs with a tired sigh, and say as I mop my sweating brow, Thank God for the good old milking cow. Do you' ask me why I love all this and why th p milking to me is bliss? T love it I’d j like to have you know, for the monthly cheque from THE TAIERT CO.
