Explore "The Horse and Cart Ferry" by Henry Lawson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
IT WAS old Jerry Brown, / Who'd an office in town, / And he used to get jocular, very; / And he'd go to the Shore / When they'd serve him no more, / And, of course, by the passenger ferry, / A sight on the passenger ferry.
Now this is a song of the ferry, / And a lay of the juice of the berry; / 'Tis the ballad of Brown, / Who'd a business in town, / And commenced to go down / Very slow, / Don't you know? / By coming home just a bit merry.
