English poem
The American Songster, Song
by Anonymous
Well, well, sap no more; Sure you told me before; I know the full length of my tether. Do you think I'm a fool, That I need go to school? I can spell you, and put you together.
A word to the wise Will always suffice: Addsniggers to talk to your parrot. I'm not such an elf, Tho'f I say it myself, But I know a sheep's head from a carrot.
