A man saw a ball of gold in the sky
A man saw a ball of gold in the sky;
He climbed for it,
And eventually he achieved it
It was clay.
Now this is the strange part:
When the man went to the earth
And looked again,
Lo, there was the ball of gold.
Now this is the strange part:
It was a ball of gold.
Aye, by the heavens, it was a ball of gold.
