Curtis & Leroy replied; "Well then, just give us our money back."
The farmer said; " Can't do that...I went and spent it already."
They said; "Okay then, just bring us the dead mule."
The farmer asked; "What in the world ya'll gonna do with a dead mule?" Curtis said; "We gonn'a raffle him off."
The farmer said; "You can't raffle off a dead mule!"
Leroy said; "We shore can! Heck, we don't hafta tell nobody he's dead!"

The farmer said; "My Lord, didn't anyone complain...?"
Curtis said; "Well, the feller who won was really upset. So we gave him his two dollars back."
