Man With A Nickel

A man with a nickel,

A sword and a sickle,

 A pipe and a paper of pins,

Set out for the Niger,

To capture a tiger......

And that's how my story begins.

When he saw the wide ocean,

He soon took a notion

'T would be nicer to stay with his friends.

So he traded his hat,

For a tortoise shell cat......

And that's how the chronicle ends!
