Joe Ramshottom rented a bit of a farm From its owner, Squire Goslett his name;

Richard the First, Coeur-de-Lion, Is a name that we speak of with pride,
Would you hear a Wild tale of adventure Of a hero who tackled the sea,
I'll tell you the story of Jonah, A really remarkable tale;
I have a page of loyal-renown Who bends to all my desires,
