"It ban daylight in svamps, all yu guys!"

And rubbing lak blazes our eyes.
Breakfast, den hustle; dinner, den yump!

"Oder fallers skol look
For chance to get grub yust lak yu!"

And Yim dandy buckvheat cakes, tu.
Den out on the skidvay, vorking lak mule.
Lumberyack faller ban yolly big fule.

And missing yure head 'bout an inch.

On places var coss cut skol pinch.

Ven long com the spring,
Ve drenk and we sing;
And calling town faller gude frend,

Our whole venter's dough,
But ant got no panga to lend.
Drenk and headache, headache and drenk.
Lumberyack faller ban sucker, ay tenk.
