HOW THE MONEY COMES.

Queer John has sung how money goes,
But how It comes. who knows who knows
Why every Yankee mothers son
Can tell YOU how "the thing is done.
1t comes By honest toll and trade,
By welding sledge aud driving spade,
And building ships, balloons and drums
And that's the way the money comes.
How does it come? Why, as it goes,
By spinning weaving knitting hose,
By stitching shirts and coats for Jews,
Erecting chdrches, renting Pews,
And man afacturing boots and shoes;
For thumps, and twists, and cuts, and hues,
And heads and hearts, tongues lungs an
thumbs
And that's the way the money comes.
How does it come? The way is plain
BY raising cotton, corn and cane;
BY wind and steam, lightning and rain,
BY guiding ships across the main;
By building bridges, roads and dams,
And sweeping streets, and digging clans,
With whistles, HIS, hos and huns
And that's the way the money comes.
The money comes-how did say?
Not alJgays in an honest way;
1t comes by risks as well as toll,
But how is thar {? Why slick as oil,
By putting peas in coffee bags,
By swapping watches, knives and nagS,
Aud peddliug leoodsH c ocks and plumsS
And that's the way the money comes.
How does it come? Wait, let me see
1t very seldom comes to me ....... ......
It comes by rue, guess, and scale,
Sometimes By riding on a raH;
But oftener that's the way it goes,
From silly bellies and fast young beaux
1t comes in big, nay, little sums
And that's the way the money comes.
