REFORM SONG.
BY CARL BRENT.
~(Air-"Mulligan Guards. ~

(~Air-'Mulligan Guards."l
We crave your condescension,
While we tell q thing or two
About the thieving Radicals
And what we mean to do.
EXtrayagance and corruption
Have ruled US long enough;
The people have taken the job in hand,
And they mean to cut up rough.
CHoRUs.-Then come, boys, come!
Make haste to crowd the polls;
The tide of reform.
It rises and 1t rolls.
The thieves and the rOgues
Will have to hunt their holes
When We vote, vote, vote heDemocrats in
With Belknap and with Babcock
This swindled land is done;
With greedy Grant and slippery Schenck
And robbing Robson.
We've done with all those rascals,
And all their wicked ways, .
And it's quite too thin to try to push in.
With a man Of straw or Hayes.
CHoRus.-The come, boys, come, etc.
We want to save the money,
And pay the peoples debt,
And 30 bring greenbacks up to par,
As good as gold, you bet.
Extravaganza and corruption
We've taken by the throat,
And the righteous cause of real reform
Will gain the country's vote.
CHoRus-Then come, boys, come, etc.
We don't care much for platforms,
But show what we have done,
And ask a chance to finish up
The work so well begun,
The roguesa and thieves to punish,
To Strengthen every still,
To send the bloody shirt to wash,
And stop the outrage mill.
C~HoRUs-Then come, boys, come, etc.
We want to rout the r~ascals,
And bring the country back
To justice and to honesty,
The Democratic track.
Thus shall the times grow better,
And plenty shall return,
And labor's wheels shall whirl again,
And the furnace fires shall burn.
CHoRUs-Then come, boys, come, etc.
