Edgar Guest - Boy And His StomachEdgar Guest - Boy And His Stomach
Work rating: Low


What`s the matter with you--ain`t I always been your friend? Ain`t I been a pardner to you? All my pennies don`t I spend In gettin` nice things for you? Don`t I give you lots of cake? Say, stummick, what`s the matter, that you had to go an` ache? Why, I loaded you with good things yesterday, I gave you more Potatoes, squash an` turkey than you`d ever had before. I gave you nuts an` candy, pumpkin pie an` chocolate cake, An` las` night when I got to bed you had to go an` ache. Say, what`s the matter with you--ain`t you satisfied at all? I gave you all you wanted, you was hard jes` like a ball, An` you couldn`t hold another bit of puddin`, yet las` night You ached mos` awful, stummick; that ain`t treatin` me jes` right. I`ve been a friend to you, I have, why ain`t you a friend o` mine? They gave me castor oil last night because you made me whine. I`m awful sick this mornin` an` I`m feelin` mighty blue, `Cause you don`t appreciate the things I do for you.
