A poetic verse invites cuddling heads on shoulders and sailing away from life to a dream world. The speaker envisions a timeless land bounded by rest, dreams, and fair weather where beauty and sleep prevail. The refrain urges closing eyes, quiet skies, and a soothing song guiding toward a magical shore beyond mortal care.
A comic scene unfolds aboard a scow as Mr Spoopendyke and his wife clash during a crab catching attempt. She traps a crab, chaos ensues, the crab torments his ear, and the pair argue about who is to blame while heading home in embarrassment.
A brooklynbayle style skit recalls crabbing misadventures on the riverbank. Mrs Spoopendyke laments, Pim contemplates walking home, and the narrator jokes about crab nature likening it to Spanish mackerel and trout. The piece ends with a nod to Brown's J an Bitters as a tonic.
The text warns that imitations of Jyop Bitters are counterfeit and inferior. It urges using only genuine Hop Bitters with a green hops cluster on the white label, and warns druggists and dealers to avoid counterfeit versions.
