The Guy Who Stubbed His Toe
Did you ever meet a youngster who had gone and stubbed his toe, An' was settin' by the roadside just a-cryin' soft and low, A-holdin' of his dusty foot, so hard and brown and bare, An' tryin' to keep from his eyes the tears a-gatherin' there?
You hear him sorta sobbin' like, an' sniffin' of his nose, You stop an' pat him on the head an' try to ease his woes; You treat him sorta kind-like an'first thing that you know, He's up an' off a-smilin', clean forgot he stubbed his toe.
Now 'long the road of life you'll find a feller goin' slow, An' like as not he's some poor cuss who's gone an' stubbed his toe; He was makin' swimmin' headway 'till he bumped into a stone, An' his friends kept hurryin' forward an' left him there alone.
fle's not sobbin', he's not sniffin'-he's just too old fer cries, But he's grievin' jest as earnest if it only comeq in sighs. An' it does a lot of good sometimes, to go a little slow, An' speak a word of comfort to a guy who's stubbed his toe.
