DER PLUMBER
Recited by Gus Williams.
Who ish dot feller so right abused,
Who scharge for schtuff he never used,
Who, ven he dies von't get excused,
Der plumber.
Who always 'round mine house does schneak,
Mit mine big servant girl to schipeak,
Who dells her, " make his tarn bipes leak,"
Der plumber.
Who send his man mit poy und pag,
To schtick on led mit a leedle rag,
And drives around mit his fast nag,
Der plumber.
Who, ven there's nottings wrong at all,
Says dot der leak's inside ter vail,
Who says, py gosh! your house vill full,
Der plumber.
Who, to his workingman he says,
Yust dake your time, dot Dutchman pays.
Who make dot shob last dirty days,
Der plumber.
Who schwears he put In forty feets
Of bipe, and dirty-nine foot scheats.
Who ish der meanest kind of beats,
Der plumber.
Who, ven he sents me in his "bill,"
Who makes it 'bond four bages fill.
Who cleans me oud my grocery till,
Der plumber.
Who gots a mortgage on mine schtore,
Mine house-veil, he gots two before,
Who soon vill kick me oud my door,
Der plumber.
