p warning signs over every fence-post on the premises. Lots of money is said to bring lots of trouble. But, Lord, our shoulders are mighty broad and we always did think we would like to have experiences of that kind. Trudge Along. Trudge along, my brother, Through the snows! Over yonder wait the summer And the rose. Trudge along, my brother, Trudge along! Over yonder wait the angels And the song! A Fine Job.
