Page 1 of 1Will Carleton
|  If there's a heaven upon the earth, a fellow knows it when He's been away from home a week, and then gets back again. | | But I have learned a thing or two; I know as sure as fate, when we lock up our lives for wealth, the gold key comes too late. | | Worm or beetle - drought or tempest - on a farmer's land may fall, Each is loaded full o' ruin, but a mortgage beats 'em all. | | Over all our happy country - over all our Nation spread, Is a band of noble heroes - is our Army of the Dead. | | I've watched my duty, straight an' true, an' tried to do it well; Part of the time kept heaven in view, An' part steered clear of hell. | | To appreciate heaven well, it's good for a person to have some fifteen minutes of hell. | | Things at home are crossways, and Betsy and I are out. |
