Johnny's drowned — here's his clo'es br Where he's got to, we dunno; br Sure enough, he never rose; br So we thought we'd let you know. br Gosh! the fright has knocked us flat — br Here's his shirt, an' here's his hat. br br Never seen him since he plopp'd, br Jist a'side the big red-gum; br So, thinks we, poor Johnny's copp'd — br All so suddent! — ain't it rum? br Must be snagg'd among the roots — br Here's his pants, an' socks, an' boots. br br Simplest thing you ever seen — br Only just a common swim — br Cripes! it might as ready been br Me or Bill in place o' him! br Try to snake him out, I s'pose? br Anyway, we fetch'd his clo'es.
