If A Body

If a body meet a body

     Spinning on a wheel,

And a body “strike” a body,

     Need a body squeal.

If a body meet a body

     Walking on the walk;

And a body “touch” a body,

     Need a body squawk.

If a body meet a body

     And his money’s out;

And a body need a toddy,

     Need a body “shout”.
