I really like this folky old song
The Jissom

I heard you got the jissom, Jim,
You brought here last fall;
You sold it to Aunt Kitty and
She drank the can and all.

When Kitty drank the jissom,
To sis's she did go;
And then straight up across the bridge
To break the news to Joe.

Jackie went to Leo, saying,
"I've got news, it's true;
Jimmy got the jissom and
He's got a can for you."

Leo drank a cupful and
Then he began to yawn;
He went to bed at seven,
And he never got up till dawn.

Next day he drank another cup,
And on the couch did fall;
When Josephine called next morning,
He was dreaming of his trawl.

Now Kitty still drinks jissom,
And she drinks it with a will;
They say that Philly Colbert,
He can suck it through a straw.

The jissom it is good stuff,
It will keep your stomach up;
"The directions on the can," says Jim,
"It'll make about 40 cups."
