When a lumberman buyeth good lumber And selleth the same below cost, The pangs of regret will assail him When he reckons the kale that is lost.
When a customer asketh clear finish And getteth a substitute grade, He forthrightly telleth the neighbors And warneth them where not to trade.
When the lumberman looketh important Top heavy and overly high, He'lI gape through his cob-webbed windows As the cream of the trade passeth by.
When a customer asketh a question And receiveth a surly reply, He taketh his estimates elsewhere And telleth the countryside why.
When the lumberman leaveth good lumber Exposed to the sun and the rain, The cost of deterioration Will furnish him plenty of pain.
When termites bore into his lumber, The lumberman killeth the same, But unethical practices, brother, Are the termites that nibble his fame.
So, I'm saying to fallers and millmenI,n fact to all workers in wood, He findeth the game is a good one, Who playeth the same as he should.
