George Had One Thing

First president a general bloke
His accomplishments? Well, let me see.
He could relate to most common folk.
Famous for chopping down a cherry tree.

Was he a general bloke, or a bloking general?! Beats me. All I know is that he's a tobacco farmer on our currency,* and that all those slave babies he sired made him 'Father of our Country! lol. ~ gw *Maybe they'll put Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer, on some currency some day. I'd put Carter's Liver pills on a $3 bill myself. H.N.Y., Caren!
