FRIENDSHIP WITH A HOG
One evening last
October, when I was far from sober
And dragging home a load with manly pride
My feet began
to stutter and I fell down in the gutter
And a pig came up and parked right by my
side
Then I mumbled, "It's fair weather when good comrades get together"
Till a lady
passing by was heard to say,
"You can tell a man that boozes by the playmates that he
chooses"
Then the pig got up and slowly walked away
I began to scratch the gravel,
on my all fours I did travel
I rambled down the road the best I could
When I awoke next
morning, just as the day was dawning
I was in a hog pen away out in the woods
Then the
hogs began to grumble, I started and I stumbled
I fell right in their midst and there I
lay
Then one by one they started, till all the herd departed
Yes, every hog got up and
walked away
Now lately I've been thinking that I will quit my drinking
I'm going to
leave off whiskey, beer and grog
For there's no consolation, but only aggravation
You
can't even find friendship with a hog
