''Johnson had an old grey mule,''<Br> 
''His name was Simon Slick;''<Br> 
''He’d roll his eyes and switch his tail,''<Br> 
''Mmh, how that mule would kick.''<Br> 
<br>
''Well rode him down to the foot of the hill,''<Br> 
''He hooked him to his cart;''<Br> 
''He loved that mule and that mule loved him,''<Br> 
''With all his muley heart.''<Br>
