Less is More

[Hillcrest]

as the old farmer said, when asked what he did in the evenings: "Sometimes I sits and thinks, and other times, I just sits."

Wow ! Does that bring back memories from my childhood !! The version I was told (last century and about 1/2 a century ago) was :
"WHEN I WORKS
I works hard.
When I sits,
I sits loose.
And when I thinks,
I falls asleep "

I believe your version is from Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne.
