Additional lyrics...
 
'Tis you who makes my friends my foes, 'Tis you who makes me wear old clothes.
Here you are so near my nose,  So tip her up and down she goes.  

If all the folks in Adams race were gathered together in one place,
Thin I'd prepare to shed a tear,  before I'd part from you, my dear.
 
If I'd a cow that gave such milk, I'd clothe her in the finest silk,
I'd feed her on the choicest hay, and milk her forty times a day.

I bought a cow from Farmer Jones, And she was nothing but skin and bones;
I fed her up as fine as silk, She jumped the fence and strained her milk.
The rose is red, my nose is too. The violet is blue and so are you;
And yet I guess before I stop, we'd better have another drop!
And when I die don't bury me at all, Just pickle my bones in alcohol;
Put a bottle o' booze at my head and feet And then I know that I will keep.
