DON’T get naughty, Freshman, / And set up late at night / A foolin wid de paste-boards. / Yer better be a studyin, / And watch whut yer erbout. / Kase Uncle Bob ‘el git yer, / Ef – yer – DON’T – watch – out. / Say yes, sir, to the ‘fessors, / And bow all around; / And DON’T chunk the squirrels, / When they er playin on der ground. / DON’T talk in the library, / And DON’T move er bout; / Kase Uncle Bob ‘el git yer. / Ef – yer - DON’T – watch – out. / DON’T make Miss Deaton / Wish that you were in heaven, / By callin on yer gal / Six nights in every seven. / But git right down fo work, / And cut yer boozin out; / Kase Uncle Bob ‘el git yer, / Ef – yer - DON’T – watch – out. -- Stone
