Vowed I'd shield her from the blast.

She raised her melting eyes to mine,
They were filled with droPs..of wee;

ONE DAY JUST AT SET OF sun

One day just at set OF sun,
When labor ceased its busy hum,
| took walk and heard this tune,
Sung glbly by that same old Coon.
CHORUS.
Git along home you Loco clique,
For your Texas Star S declining;
Git along home you Loco clique,
For the Star OF the Wings is shining.
There is man in Tennessee
Our President he wants TO be,
We lick'd that varmint twice with Jones,
And Harry Clay will break his bones.
Git along, &c.
Yes, Jimmy Polk he is the man,
The locos took instead Of Van;
But Jimmy you cant win the day,
For Polk stalks never grow in Clay.
Git along, &c.
The Locos think they have US slick;
They think on Polk to make US sick,
But they'll find out, and that right soon,
That Polk juice will not hurt this Coon,
Git along, &c.
You'd better keep your Polk away,
Or we will cover him Ger with Clay;
The Coon will never stop or baulk,
But eat up berries, Polk and Stalk.
Git along, &c.
And Captain Tyler much does yearn,
To keep his seat second term,
But Captain you must "crarfsh" soon,
Now mark the words Of this here Coon.
Git along, &c.
But right down here in Old Kentuck,
If this Old Coon has any luck,
Well fluid a man 10 gain the day,
And who will stick as tight as Clay.
Git along, &c.
Yes, give us Harry Of the West,
The truest, wiSeSt and the best,
And then if things don't mend right soon,
Then take the hide off this old Coon.
Git along, &c.
We have man, you all know we'll,
And we will call his name John Bell;
And when you get him wide awake,
Oh! how he'll make your Polk stalk shake
Gil! along, &c.
The people say It's not surprisin'
We go for Clay and FreIinghuysen.
The ship Of State needs no such ballast,
As James K. Polk and George NJ. Dallas,
Git along, &c.
With Frelnghuysen and our Clay,
We all intend 10 win the day,
And never, never, wear the yoke
or George M. Dallas and James X. Polk
Git along. &c.
Now TO you ladies, bless your souls,
Oh! send your husbands to the polls,
And as they 60 be sure to say.
DO vote, my dear for Harry Clay"
Gil along. &c.
And 10 all the girls throughout. the land,
Do mind to whom you give your hand;
And before you set the wedding day,
Just make them swear to vote for Clay.
Git along &c
