    Ranning on the railway
    How do you do?
    Just what I like.
    How do you do?
    Butter upon one ride.
    Sugar upon two
    And buy a box of matches.
    From the poor old man.
    Forty days and forty nights
    Picking a jewel on a Jew mans back
    The Jew man swore
    If he caught him any more.
    He would break all the bones in his back.
