So the days of my tramping are over	A
And the days of my riding are done	B
I m about as content as a rover	A
Will ever be under the sun	B
I write after reading your letter	A
My pipe with old memories rife	C
And I feel in a mood that had better	A
Not meet the true eyes of the wife	C
You must never admit a suggestion	B
That old things are good to recall	D
You must never consider the question	B
Was I happier then after all	D
You must banish the old hope and sorrow	E
That make the sad pleasures of life	C
You must live for To day and To morrow	E
If you want to be just to the wife	C
	-
I have changed since the first day I kissed her	A
Which is due Heaven bless her to her	A
I m respected and trusted I m Mister	A
Addressed by the children as Sir	A
And I feel the respect without feigning	F
But you d laugh the great laugh of your life	C
If you only saw me entertaining	F
An old lady friend of the wife	C
	-
By the way when you re writing remember	A
That you never went drinking with me	G
And forget our last night of December	A
Lest our sev ral accounts disagree	G
And for my sake old man you had better	A
Avoid the old language of strife	C
For the technical terms of your letter	A
May be misunderstood by the wife	C
	-
Never hint of the girls appertaining	F
To the past when you re writing again	H
For they take such a lot of explaining	F
And you know how I hate to explain	I
There are some things we know to our sorrow	E
That cut to the heart like a knife	C
And your past is To day and To morrow	E
If you want to be true to the wife	C
	-
I believe that the creed we were chums in	J
Was grand but too abstract and bold	K
And the knowledge of life only comes in	J
When you re married and fathered and old	K
And it s well You may travel as few men	H
You may stick to a mistress for life	C
But the world as it is born of woman	B
Must be seen through the eyes of the wife	C
	-
No doubt you are dreaming as I did	L
And going the careless old pace	M
While my future grows dull and decided	L
And the world narrows down to the Place	M
Let it be If my treason s resented	N
You may do worse old man in your life	C
Let me dream too that I am contented	N
For the sake of a true little wife	C
