Three workers on the high beam sat.
The ground was ninety feet below.
Twas noontime and they broke for lunch...
Gunther, Guiseppe and Toe.

Gunther opened his lunchpail first
And said, with a loud HRRUMPPH!
"Again she gives me sauerkraut and wurst.
If she does it tomorrow, I'll jump!!!"

Then Guiseppe opened his lunchpail up
And said, "Spaghetti again!!!"
If she packs for me the same tomorrow,
I'll jump with you, my friend!"


Then Toerag opened his school lunch box
And said, "oh, me oh, my!!
If I see Polish sausage again
With my two friends I'll die!!!"

Next day there they were again,
The three friends on the ledge.
Gunther looked and saw the wurst
Then jumped right off the edge!

Guiseppe looked.....spaghetti again!
"Hey, Gunther, wait for me!"
Then Toerag saw his Polish sausage
So down they went, all three.

The funeral was a huge affair
For this sad tragedy
The foreman saw poor Toerag's wife
Sitting 'neath a tree.

"I'm sorry, miss", he sadly  said,
"But we were unaware
That there were problems which could lead
To such a sad affair."

Toe's wife looked up, teary-eyed,
And said, "Well, thanks a bunch
But there was no way to avoid it..
Toe packed his own lunch!!!"

Caught that jumper name of Toe
Held on tight, did not let go

Balladeer,
Well you nailed him again, I think you can change his name to swiss cheese, He's so full of holes. Love the banter. Sy
