They have milk and cheese
And butler, and peas.
And powder for fleas.
And a very nice
"May I help you, please?"
You can buy jam or jell.
Or a tinkling bell.
Or eggs in the shell.
And you'll always hear ,
"Hope you've been well!"
There are caps from pelts
And salve for welts.
And there're leather belts.
And a courteous
"Is there anything else?"
I've found corn in a can
And socks for a man.
As well as a new pie pan
And a smiling
"Nice to see you again."
You'll find a clothes rack.
Or some flour in a sack.
Or maybe a kid's gimcrack.
And in parting, a
"Please come back."
