Sleep an Hour Later in the Morning
Ever had to get up before six With a gas range, women's best friend,
Cold whiter mornings dark as styx There's no kindling to make, no fire to tend,
The kitchen fire to build and fix; All worrying over breakfast is at an end;
Then have the coal fire make you wait You can sleep right up tob:45,thankhuivn,
For breakfast until almost eight Have breakfast ready on the dot at seven,
Making your day's work an hour late? Finishing the day's work long before eleven.
It's Gas that Cooks the Pood that Feeds the Family that Makes the Home
