Never Be a Gold Digger

Don’t dare be A Gold Digger, Who pays like A Never one's treasures near While permitting no fear. Never either bestride a farm That didn’t weary your arm Nor try to closer go To any of its inviting row, For one should not at all experience charm Of what didn’t occasion one harm: To never dare reap What didn’t for you grow Not amass in a heap What another did sow Many a gold digger has ended like a fowl And very few felt they should wear a scowl.
