_Bad Boy`s Version_.
Tell you a story--an` it`s a fac`:--
Wunst wuz a little boy, name wuz Jack,
An` he had sword an` buckle an` strap
Maked of gold, an` a "`visibul cap;"
An` he killed Gi`nts `at et whole cows--
Th` horns an` all--an` pigs an` sows!
But Jack, his golding sword wuz, oh!
So awful sharp `at he could go
An` cut th` ole Gi`nts clean in two
Fore `ey knowed what he wuz goin` to do!
An` _one_ ole Gi`nt, he had four
Heads, and name wuz "Bumblebore"--
An` he wuz feered o` Jack--`cause he,
_Jack_, he killed six--five--ten--three,
An` all o` th` uther ole Gi`nts but him:
An` thay wuz a place Jack haf to swim
`Fore he could git t` ole "Bumblebore"--
Nen thay was "griffuns" at the door:
But Jack, he thist plunged in an` swum
Clean acrost; an` when he come
To th` uther side, he thist put on
His "`visibul cap," an` nen, dog-gone!
You could n`t see him at all!--An` so
He slewed the "griffuns"--_boff_, you know!
Nen wuz a horn hunged over his head
High on th` wall, an` words `at read,--
"Whoever kin this trumput blow
Shall cause the Gi`nt`s overth`ow!"
An` Jack, he thist reached up an` blowed
The stuffin` out of it! an` th`owed
Th` castul-gates wide open, an`
Nen tuck his gold sword in his han`,
An` thist marched in t` ole "Bumblebore,"
An`, `fore he knowed, he put `bout four
Heads on him--an` chopped `em off, too!--
Wisht `at _I`d_ been Jack!--don`t you?
