THE WOBBLING MAN (John Neville) from http://www.johnnevillemusic.com/?page_id=30#C11
As a cold October morn begins
An old man cries for his past sins
To his lips a picture I see him press
Of a dancing woman in a wedding dress
THE PIG GOT UP (Benjamin Hapgood Burt)
One evening in October
When I was about one-third sober
And was taking home a load with manly pride
My poor feet began to stutter
So I lay down in the gutter
And a pig came up and lay down by my side
