Your Sister Kate



Now Orville knows a thing or two
    Outside the airship line;
That he has stacks of common sense
    He shows by word and sign.
Whene’er he journeys near or far,
    Within or out his state,
On business or pleasure bent,
    He takes his sister Kate.

No selfish bach’ is Orville Wright,
    No narrow miser he;
He is devoted to his sis,
    He likes good company.
He seeks not social butterflies,
    More chic and up to date;
When Orville wants a jolly pal,
    He takes his sister Kate.

You who waste money on yourselves,
    Or on some heartless sprite,
You would do well to take a tip
    From brother Orville Wright.
When you are cruising, even though
    You do not aviate,
You couldn’t do a wiser thing
    Than take your sister Kate.
