Classic Tithin' Poem
Classic Tithin'
By Mudyard Stripling (ultra-important redneck poet)
Travellin' t't'other city
An' throwin' a dinner-party fo' th' pore an' th' priests
Thets whut classical biblical tithin' is
Ah did classic-type tithin' when a friend on vacashun,
Travelled far t'a sunny city of palm trees,
To spend his money an' th' money I'd paid him
Letters t'th' city corntainin' poetic-prayers I'd written
Arrived in th' city th' same time as him
By magical alchemah mah excess of spendin'
On luxuries bought fum him,
Was turned into an hono'able tithe
When he spent it in th' city of th' Palm-trees & beaches
An' Ah c'd see how sech classical inter-city tithin',
Serves th' purpose of brin'in' t'mind,
How th' angels brin' gif's fum hevvin,
Down t'earth t'share with mankind
Ah c'd feel them junerous gif'-barin' angels within;
An' Ah felt thankful t'them angels,
Do' brin'in' t'earth th' gif's fum hevven
