Cut And Dry Guy Carpentry was not his first calling nor was it his last Unable to find a forte he changed vocations fast There was an opening when some carpentry work came in And so Ossie showed up with his tool belt, ready to
start working Now the foreman saw Ossie looking and able bodied man Didn’t question Ossie’s abilities and Ossie began Doing everything they gave him like an expert Raised the power saw and when it dropped below shout
“Any body hurt?” You got to be more careful the foreman said there was
blood everywhere Got to get a bag with some ice to put in yah ear Unable to under, Ossie replied, foreman you must admit Yah wrong! Dah ‘aint my ear, my ear had a pencil behind
it! |
