there once was an old lady who had nothing much cepting no red cent
and some rubber checks..... how odd. no, seemed like everyone she
new on the rez didnt have a red cent but lots of rubber checks....

well, she wondered, how could this be. if i have no red cent, than i
must HAVE no red cent.... and if i have lots of rubber checks, than i
must HAVE checks that if sent will yeild no red cent. if i dont
have no red cent, that equals rubber checks.... ok, ok . i got
it......

so, lets see, how do i pay for those bills. i havnt got a red cent
to buy a stamp for my rubber checks... and ahhhhhhhh. well, i dont
realy have a red cent for an envelope either......

oh wait hold on. ok, im back. that was someone wanting to sell his
commot cheese cause he didnt have a red cent.... i told him, sorry i
got no red cent either..... ok than, he said....... HEY BUDDY i said,

commots.... whatcha needing....... if its other food, i got that....

no, need gas money says he...... ok than, cant help ya there......
sorry dude..... try randy i says, ok than he replies, he home?...
should be i says....... and i think he got paid.... he was waiting on
a check to clear that was rubber.... cause the guy that paid him,
gave him a rubber check, so he must not of had a red cent...... but,
randy said the dude said it id be good on tuesday when he got
paid.... thats if he didnt get paid with a rubber check cause the guy
who owes him dont have no red cent.....

well, we stood and looked at one an other and smilled..... well he
says, we still got red skin..... we can track a scent..... we can
live off our sence....... here yah buddy, here yah............
