I need help with the rest of thie...er, I think it qualifies as a limerick. I came across it in a Vonnegut novel, and I've since been through all the vonnegut novels I have at home and can't find it again..

And please don't ask why I need it....

Here goes:

"My name is Yon Yonsen,
I live in Wisconsin,
I work in the lumber mill there."

And I can't recall the rest...I know that it ends the same way it begins, but I can't for the life of me remember the middle...

can I get a little help?

 

Everything can be found on the internet:

My name is Yon Yonson.
I come from Wisconsin.
I work in a lumber mill there.
When I walk down the street,
all the people I meet say,
"Hey, what's your name, buddy?" And I say-


And it isn't a limerick. The first, second and fifth lines of a limerick have eight syllables (or nine if the place name has two syllables), and rhyme with each other. The third and fourth lines have six syllables and also rhyme. The first line of a limerick always contains a character (person) and a place name at the end.

 

Thanks loads....
