ALIMONY (Learned from Lester Bush in 1927 at University of Idaho,S.B., Pocatello)
Oh, Adam was the first guy that was invented; He Wander all around and he never contented; They made him out of clay in the days gone by, And the yhung hi out in the sun to dry! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die!
And then came Eve, and tehy had an awful battle; She chased Adam up a tree to get an apple! Adam ate two, and he gave Eve one-- And that is how all the trouble begun! Oh alimony, I wanta live anyway, till I die!
And then came Cain, and Eve was his mother; He stumbled all around till he found himself a bother. The Good Book says that Cain killed Abel-- He hit him in the head with a leg of table! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die!
And then came Noah a-stumbling in the dark; He found a saw and a hatchet, and he built himself an ark. Then came the animals, two by two, The hippo-hippopotamus and kangaroo! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die!
Then it rained for forty days and forty nights without a-stopping; The damned old boat began a-leaking and a-rocking; The ocean got rude and the waves got rank, And the whale threw Jonah on the Sandy bank! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die!
And then came Roosevelt a-looking for a bear; He searched the Mississippi, and he couldn't find him there. He went to South Africa, so I've heard, And killed them with a fountain pen at forty cents a word! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die! I once new a doctor by the name of Peck. He fell into a well, and he broke his damned neck! It served him right--he should have stayed at home, Tended to the sick and left the well alone! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die!
I bought myself a pair of combination underwear Just to keep out the cold, and the damp, and the chilly air; I wore them six months without exaggeration--- And when I went to take the off I found I'd lost the combination! Oh alimony, I wanta live, anyway, till I die!
