Go prop your legs up at the store And smoke— and then be glad you're poor. 33 YOU'RE WEALTHY |ON'T worry just because you're poor, If you were rich you'd worry more— That's cert'in. You get your three square meals a day, You couldn't eat more anyway— 'Thout hurtin'. Don't think the fates have been unkind. There's many millionaires you'll find— Complainin'. There's lots of men -with so-called means. Who'd like to wear your old blue jeans— 'Thout strainin'. You fellows in your working clothes Can... shake 'em when the whistle blows— 'Thout frettin'. The boss with dollars to your dime, You bet he's working overtime— And sweatin'. 34 There's them who'd give up every sou If they could stand up strong like you— And healthy. You've got your children and your wife, You've love and happiness and life — You're wealthy. « V V 35 WE'LL HANG OUR ^ J* STOCKINGS IN A ROW |HE backlog glows, and sings and cheers, Companion of the whitening years; The firelight flickers on the floor, I'm dreaming Tm a boy once more.
