An ol' Sea Captain
Once, I say, woonce an ol' sea captain came 'obblin' ashore. I was like, walkin' along the beach,.... not doin' anything of any pa'ticular import, when ee asks me, "Son, why don't yuh coom sailin' with oos n' see the wuld."
....I thanked 'im kindly, cooz ee'd asked me twice as kindly as I'd thanked 'im, but I said no, cooz I got this job of bein' a drummer. He shook 'is head and tol' me I could play the drums whilst the other men rowed an' did all the 'ard work,... an' I says to 'im "That's me job already."
