I've Been Trading Things All Morning

So I was reading the forum "Be My Glitchy Valentine" by Theremina Lute when I noticed Kookaburra's comment here: www.glitch.com/forum/genera...
So I wrote new Glitchy song lyrics about the Rube. It's called "I've Been Trading Things All Morning" and it's to the tune of "I've Been Working On the Railroad." Hope you enjoy it.

I've been trading things all morning
All the livelong day
I've been trading things all morning
Just to give some stuff away

Can't you hear the Glitchen yelling,
"I do not want your trade!"
I just look at them and smile
And give them lemonade!

I've been trading Glitchen
I've been trading Glitchen
I've been trading Glitchen all day long
I've been trading Glitchen
I've been trading Glitchen
That is why I sing this song.

Sometimes I will give them an rare Doll
All I want is one of their meat
Other times I'll give them a bean and
All my trades can't be beat!

Fee Fi Fiddly-y o
I don't know why all the Glitchen hate me so
Fee Fi Fiddly-y o
I'm the best trader, yes you know!

  • I can hear him singing now, especially "All my trades just can't be beat!" and "I don't know why all the Glitchen hate me so"

    Oh, I love you Rube!  Even if you want to trade my fancy pick for sammich! 

    Thank you!

  • Too bad you an't go back on trades.  Once he had a good offer but I wanted to see what else he had, then lost it!   :*(*******

  • Great job,  though I think this is a more apt song for the Rube

  • Now, whenever I see the rube, I start thinking of this song. And then he offers me a bean for my emblem, and I scream at him.
