Van Buren's Farewell.
IuNR- Billy Buri0to.
Come oil ye good people and list 70 hy song,
For 20 the White House shall not temain long
aly story IS shert, but Ills not very swee,,
Since Il all appertains 10 my sfnnal defeat.
Chortss.--Oh dear. What shall do,
The devil take IIler and TippecanOe
There's my native New York, | was sure would
stand firm,
Aud give me the aid sof her powerful arm.
But 1ammany Hall, and tho free neoross too,
Have been blown 70 the devil By Tippecanoe.
And IN old Pennsylvania always had thought.
That votors could surely fof money Be bought:
bat the rascally wings, they played thut game too
and me bitter got hlt BIZ old Tippecanoe.
Then placeda fond hope on that rascallv Maine
But TO vote for the Hero she could moi refrain:
SO when the polls opened, quick II she flew,
Righsinto the arms Of old Tippeoanoe.
Just list 70 Conneeiicut's trumpnt-toned voice,
Ter thundeFs speak loud for the man 81 her choice
Vermont and Rhode Island agree with her TOO.
Andsead up their shouts for old Tippecanoe.
Hark bark the warm blood nearly chills in ny
Fer Tennesseo's singing d mighty Wing strains,
And methinks that hear The old sGineTap swear
too,
by the eternal she's gone for old Tippeeanoe.
Great God IS this thunder hear from the West.
or Is i . groan from the Greatest and Bessn
IT'S the voice 81 Kentucky, the mighty and frue,
As she peals the loud thunder for Tippecanoe
Oh dear, what shall do,
The devil take Letcher and Tippecanoe.
The broad seal Of New Jersey is rising again,
t3n o5f4 Aff de-
For thought ! had sunk tina. rascally crew,
But they've risen again for old Tippecanoe
Oh dear, what shall do,
The devil take Tyler and Tippecanoe
a voice from old Georgia comes on the blast,
Her vote has been given the die has been cast;
She goes for Log Cabins andl Hard Cider tOog
And vayesh her bright banners for Tippecanoe.
Blos suftiy ye inds from the far souiharn shore.
For meghtnKs now hear Mississippi's voice roar j
She sings out Of Office both DICK and me too,
To the tune Of Hard Cider and Tippecanoe.
Illinois and Carolina are now my last hope,
And much Ifear there the whig ball will notstopi
But will rush into Texas and Canada too,
And force them to vote for old Tippecanoe.
Oh dear, what shall do,
Confound the dear people & Tippeeanoe.
Then there's old Massachusetts, has raised her
large paw
As she did when she crushed The fifteen paionlaw;
With her paw that's 50 dreaded she struck me z
And she crowded eighteen thousand for Tip'coe.
Oh dear, what shall do,
The devil take Davis and Iippecanoe
Ny sleep was broke 81 he Buckeye State,
When my ear was first greeted by poor shanon's
fate,
For Kentncky,s ssone-hammer and Tom GorwIn's
prsaehs'd some ezeellsn, sermons for Tippeeanos,
a lew Of the snail States have given me theil
But like iPharaoh's lean kine, they are not worth
groat;
The mud IS 50 deep that they can't get me thro'
b wish they could wade like old Tippeeanoe.
Missouri, Arkansas aud New Hampshire too,
Illinois. Alabama, Virginia, and Co,
And mayhap South Carolina great God what !
Compared with the States fOr old IiPpecanoe.
Salt liver. the pride Of the rivers Of earth,
Z gu dow thro' : land Of great wisdom and worth
And the ssHeaven-bern Amos'' whom I'll Of yol
know.
says It'slhe best place to hidefrom old Tipp'noe
besides my friend Amos himself has gone there
ISecnrely to rest from Wing thunder and fear,
His babes will no raore beawakened BIZ that crew
Who are firing ~ guns Tor old Iippecanoe.
Oh dear, what shall / do,
The devil take Tyler and Iippacanoe.
EDick thinks thai Salt River will Do Tor him too,
AS lie told me himself but few weeks ago,
lSngs be, as I'm lame Ind better start noWs
For fear I'll be caught ~ old Ilppeeanoe.
EFarewe 70 all Democrats, since now ny son
Il Must end with disasters already loo long;
lust you pray for me. and e pray Ior YOU
And s Ell curse ali the wings, & old I'ippecanoe
