Paying Debts With Kicks




From: NURSERY RHYME SECTION

I owes y[=o]' daddy a peck o' peas.
I'se gwineter pay it wid my knees.
I owes y[=o]' mammy a pound o' meat;
An' I'se gwineter pay dat wid my feet.
Now, if I owes 'em somethin' m[=o]';
You come right back an' let me know.
Please say to dem ('fore I fergets)
I never fails to pay my debts.
