Just Ask Alo

:

JUST ASK ALO


Some moose are big
Some moose are small
Most people hunt them in the fall.
Alo caught the most of all.

Some moose are old
Some are callow.
Which tastes better,
Just ask Alo.

Just ask Alo,
For he is old
Many people he has told
Moose don't taste good when they're cold.

We mostly hunt moose in September
Sometimes we hunt in December
We never hunt them in November
Because their meat ain't so tender.
