We knew poor Jessie was realy dead
when we saw the bullet hole in his head.

Jack Sprat could eat no lean
so his wife just licked his body clean.

Here lies poor old johnie's ghost
He died from eating his wife's burnt toast.

Here lies Johnny the Bootlegger's Son
The Reveneur's shot him before he could run.
