    Till we could'nt stop down for our glass.
    What an elegant night at the wind-mill we had
    At the raffle of Mike Connor's Ass.
    Mike Connor stood up and he gave a long speech.
    Concerning his beautiful beast.
    He ran at Camp sports on August the fourth
    And he was not the last in the chase.
    And who ever shall win him they won't be sucked in,
    For his equals you could not surpass
    So fill up your glasses, and drink to the health.
    Of the winner of Mike Connor's Ass.
