So many pig stories, so little time.

Sorry it's such a long time before posting this, but I've been away from
home for a while.

Two things spring to mind about pigs:

"Dogs looks up to men, cats looks down on 'em, but pigs treats men as
equals";

and

"The Pig Got Up and Slowly Walked Away", 1933 song by Benjamin Hapgood
Burt:

One evening in October, when I was one-third sober,
An' taking home a ‘load' with manly pride;
My poor feet began to stutter, so I lay down in the gutter,
And a pig came up an' lay down by my side;
Then we sang ‘It's all fair weather when good fellows get together,'
Till a lady passing by was heard to say:
‘You can tell a man who "boozes" by the company he chooses'
And the pig got up and slowly walked away.

Anybody know the tune?

HNY to one and all (well, most of you)
