POETRY IN CONGRESS
(Congressional Record)
To Whom Does the River Belong?
The river belongs to the Nation:
The levee, they say, to the State;
The Government runs navigation;
The Commonwealth, though, pays
the freight.
Now, here is. the problem that's
heavy
Please, which is the right or the
'wrong .
When the water runs over the levee.
To whom does the river belong?
i . ''
It's the Government's river in the sum
mer, When the stage of the water is low,
But in spring when it goes on a hum
mer And starts o'er the levee to flow,
When the river gets suddenly dippy
The State must dig down in its till
And push back the old Mississippi
Away from the farm and the mill.
- j .'. .
I know very l'ttle of lawing,
I've made little Btudy of courts,
I've done little geeing and hawing
Through verdicts, opinions, reports;
Why need there be anything more said
When the river, starts levees to
climb?
If the Government owns the aforesaid,
It must own it all of tb,e time.
If the bull you are leading should bel
low ' And jump over somebody's fence.
There isn't much doubt you're the fel
low
Expected to bear the expense;
If it follows a Sunday-chool teacher
And chases the maid up a tree,
You're the owner the same of the
creature
Undoubtedly all will agree.
If some time should somebody's chick-
- ens
Get into your garden and dig
And pull up the plants like the dickens
Or somebody's bull pup or pig,
The owner thereof can not blame It
On you or some party remote;
The owner thereof can't disclaim it
The chick or the pup or the shoat.
If it's your Mississippi in dry time,
It's your, Uncle Sam, when it's wet
If It's your Mississippi in fly time,
In flood time it's your river yet;
There's no other way you can make It
And bo when I give the alarm
Come get your darned river and tae it
' Away from my timber and farm
