GOOD-BY ER HOWDY- DO.
Say good-by er howdy-do. What's the odds betwixt the two ! Comin 1 , goin'. every day, Best friends first to go a way .' Grasp of hand^ you druthrr hold Then their weight in solid gold. Ships their grip while greeting you ; Say good-by cv howdy-do. Howdy-do, and then good-by, Mixes inst like laugh and cry ; Deaths and births, and worst and best. Tangled their contraricst ; Every jinglin' weddin' bell, Skecnn' up some funeral knell ; Here's my song, and there's your sigh ; Howdy-do, and. then good-by. Say good-by er kowdy-do, Jest the same to mo Jind you : 'Taint worth while to make no fuss. 'Cause the K'b's put up on us ; Some one's runiun' thi-3 oonnein That's got nothin' else to learn ; If he's willin' Ave'll pull thiough ; Say eood-by er howdy-do. — Jamies WmrcoMnE Rilisv, in "Indianapolis Journal."
