When the Corn is in the Fodder and the Fodders in the Hogs When the pigs are in the. fodder and the fodder's in the pigs. Then the farmer rides in autos and in other lordly rigs: There's a rich Wagnerian music in the grunt and in the squeal When the pudgy porcine treasure ambles gayly to its meal, And the ultimate consumer in his pocket wildly digs When the pigs are in the fodder and the fodder's in the pigs. ■When the hen is on the cackle and the egg is in the nest. Then the farmer strokes his whiskers with a joy all unex pressed. And he reads the market columns and he hums a merry lay While he crates the precious dozens to be hustled on their way, O, his wife shall have her bonnet of the very, very best. When the hen is on the cackle and the egg is in the nest. When the beeves are in the stock car and the packer writes his check, Then the farmer buys another quarter - section — yes, by heck! And he doesn't can? for gold bricks and won't stand for a josh. And he thinks he'll run for office, and he doesn't say “b'gosh.” He is sitttng with four aces, and he's drawing from the deck, When the beeves are in the stock car and the packer writes his check. When the milk is in the bucket the butter's in the churn. Then the erstwhile humble fanner has a stack of wealth to burn. He is planning trips to Europe, and he's bought a phonograph With a record quoting prices that are bound to make him laugh, O, I guess the humble fanner is a man you will not spurn When the milk is in the bucket and the butter's in the churn. —Chicago Post.
