Secrets of a long Life?
Posted: 04 Jul 2010, 21:14
The horse and mule live 30 years
And nothing know of wines and beers.
The goat and sheep at 20 die
And never taste a Scotch and Rye.
The cow drinks water by the ton
And at 18 years is mostly done.
Without the aid of rum and gin
The dog at 15 cashes in.
The cat in milk and water soaks
And then at 12 short years it croaks.
The modest sober bone dry hen
Lays eggs for nogs, then croaks at 10.
All animals are strictly dry,
Then sinless live and mostly die.
But sinful, ginful, rum-soaked men
Survive three score years and ten,
And some of us, a mighty few,
keep drinking 'til we're 92!
