Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some Idle Moments Hell Scene - Tavern Opposite Stage Door of a Theatre. Here, yer youngster, gimme yer hand! Come in; sit down. Now boys, Let´s have a drink. Ah, that´s good! Say, Tom, there´s such a noise Yer´d better close the tavern door, for anyhow I reckon The rest o´ them folks can find the way without yer beck´nin´. You actors are a good smart lot when taken as a whole; Of course, there are a few o´ yer a-lackin´ in the soul; But yer sort o´ mind yer business and go yer humble way, So its none o´ my affairs if yer do turn night into day. Ugh! how cold it is! Tom, give us a good stiff drink And pile a log upon the fire; this sort o´ makes me think O´ other Christmas nights ´round the blazin´ logs at home, Of days long gone and old friends, too. Yer see, I´m all alone. Father and Mother and us lived on the farm; We´d dogs and cats and hens and pigs, some horses in the barn. We had a house with brand new paint, folks said the best around; And corn and wheat and milk and eggs, the best that could be found. I didn´t have much schoolin´; yer see, they needed me About the place to milk the cows or chop down some old tree; So Jack, he got the schoolin´, and Bill - that´s my name - Was made to go without; but to me ´twas all the same. Once Pa and Ma were taken sick and when the winter came, Yer see, they died. Then Jack went West to make himself a name Among the big folks there; he married a mighty fine young gal; Folks said she was the sweetest thing - I think they called her Sal. Come, Tom, another drink! Boys. I haint begun to tell Half I´ve forgot about a Heaven and all I know of Hell! Well, when I was left alone upon the dear old place, I got kind o´ lonesome for the sight of a woman´s face. Straightenin´ up the big, square rooms was somehow out o´ my line; I wasn´t such a powerful cook, nor even a housemaid fine.
