American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
GROWLER THAT NEVER CAME. Tune-' The Letter That Never Came." Sung by Murphy and Welle. 
He leaned against the fence und he scraped up seven cents. Not another penny had he to his name; If he only had three more, he'd go in a liquor store, Und get a hummer, but, alas, he searched in vain. Then a tho't flashed thro' his mind, beer's only seven cents a pint, Den he called a little boy, who looked quite slick; He said, "sonny, I'm in luck, I've got enough to rush the duck, Here's the money, get a growler, come back quick." 
Chorus. How long he waited we've forgotten, We know he spit bales of cotton, Und de wind blew through his whiskers just the same; He had thought that boy all right, Yet from early morn 'till night, He waited but the growler never came.
