They made a bad law against whiskey
And cared not how many were vexed
No matter how sick. or how badly

Not drop could he buy to relieve him,
Not drop for his poor 'stomach's sake"
And the people began to 20 downward,
More sickly, more poorly they grew,
Till even our boosted green mountains
Took ON bad bilious hue.
Then up Sprang a second George W,
father of country forsooth!
He invented a scheme to upbuild us
And place the loved dram in our tooth.
An agent in every village
He said would be good tor the health.
He could carefully deal out the ardent,
And ill up the treasury with wealth.
And so i'll the statutes was entered
A law that a man who was sick
Could buy through an agent his bittcrs
And put in his physic stick
Heartrending it is to contemplate
What physical ruin we be!
Enough of the "tipple" is needed
To make respectable sea.

Aches, pains, and all manner of ills,
Are now cured by doses of whiskey.

We now find are practical wrecks
And the remedy need to heal them
Goes smoothly from pint bottle necks.

There's money to fill all her bills,
