Now since the election is over,
I'll sing of my humbuggiog rigs,
How have been living in clover,
All at the expense of the Wings.
shutup my shop in Ohio,
Bought out by the Wings it is true,
TO fight like another Goliah,
Ia the ranks for old Tppccanoc.
A speech was composed by the party
Which was to learn and to vcnd,
Intended to sink little Marty,
And raise lhe poor tool Of North Bend.
As the fly is ensnared by the spider,
They thought to catch The Democrats too,
In the webs of Log Cabins and Cider
and songs of oil 1Tppecmoe.
My purse being filed, was posted
Away on some humbugging tour,
Wherever went was toasted
AS the friend of the laboring poor;
Through country and town was greeted
BY thousands who furiously flew
To hear my Grafton repeated,
And songs for oil TppecaHoe.
And here they arranged Committee
To honor the great Mr. Bear,
And escort him into the city,
Received by the Councils and Mayor.
Aud here was a mongrel collection,
Impatient to hear something new
Concerning the coming Election
And hopes of old ITppecanoe.
The wings for effect, simple fcllowsl
Had fixed on the Stage for parade,
A forge, and an anvil and bellows,
And set me to work at my trade.
hammered away and spouted.
And sang as my bellows l blew,
And the rabble huzzaed and shouted
For Buckeye and ITppecanoe,
The Federal farce is now ended,
And Harrison sinks in despair,
Old Buckeyes fortune is mended.
And Martin remains in the chair.
Oh Wings when We meet in convention
The contest again to renew,
For decency's sake never mention
Old Granny Of TiPpecanoe.
Madam TipPy won't run, you've tried he
Though sporting petticoat red
With pictures of cabins and cider
You never could force her ahead,
Farewell to the federal party,
And the Wings of Connecticut blue,
With health to little dutch Marty,
And a tear to poor TiPPecanoe.
