But in the air we'll hang them up

And dash to earth their cider cup,
With our brave "Polk and Dallas"
So let them howl till they are hoarse, ;...
And swagger round the nation,
Bnt all the pretty girls. of course,
Will 90 for annexation! .,.
And he who'll not approve their choice.
Must be both cold and calous;
So all We bold aud gallant boys,
Enlist for "Polk and Dallas"
Let ''colporteur," like cats paw tools.

And "ponr" and 'weals they call US,

The rousng cry rings on the air,
