DON’T SPEND IT ALL
(by William Henry Huff)
Remember that it never pays
to put it all upon your back
As there will be some other days
Which may be fraught with want \

A fool alone will spend it all
For pomp and for an outside show
And then when Summer comes or
Fall,
De broke and have no where to go.
