The Worker and the Tramp
by Jack London
Heaven bless you, my friend -
You, the man who won't sweat;
Here's a quarter to spend.
If you did but mend,
My job you would get; -
Heaven bless you, my friend. -
On you I depend
For my work, don't forget; -
Here's a quarter to spend.
My hand I extend,
For I love you, you bet: -
Here's a quarter to spend.
Ah! you comprehend
That I owe a debt;
Heaven bless you, my friend,
Here's a quarter to spend.
