He saw 'em with his little eye,
That's why
Their cruisers lie
All battercdup there OH the beach
Schley's n peach,
That's what
He opened up with she'll and shot
One ship against the lot!
Schloy
Went in to do or die.
And he did
Just smash the lid
OF their cracker box,
Sehley old fox!
Why
Didn't somebody mention Schlcy
When the good news came?
Did they try
To keep his name
From being coupled with the glo-
rious work?
Did they try to jerk
The credit ne had won
Away?
Well, hardly, but what's done is
done
They
Were excited that day!-
So here's to SeEley,
The man
Who saw them with his little eye
AS they ran
For the open sea!
He
Is the man who merits praise
70 him is due
The credit, and he'll get it, too,
One of these days!
just keep on, Scbley,
You're all right;
1t was your fight
The world will know it by and by
