My Dad Was a Furrier Man

My dad was a furrier man, a hunter, a skinner.
He sometimes was traveling, not home for dinner.
He went to New York
Ate steak with a fork
When he came home with the money, a winner.

Pretty sure. He sent us a postcard once from New York that said Hamburgers cost five dollars here. I still have it.
