THE MAYOR OF HAT OFF.

Bill jerks had been our mayor fur nigh on to
twenty year,
But tlother night we noticed ne was feelln
purity queer,
An before the sun had risen his wife come
roun' said
That Bill had cashed his chips in an was lyin
cold an dead
Then fang Of sorrow hit us, hydraulic in its
force,
An the tears shed by the women were the
tears of real remorse.
Then we passed a resolution in Hat On on
that day
That no man should drink whisky until Bill
was laid away.
Now, when Bill was 'lected mayor he never
knew no law.
BE never knew a teacher, an school he never
saw.
ae never knew that C'lumbus sailed acrost
the mighty main
lust to find our land Of freedom an would do
the Job again.
De always tho't George Washington was hap
Ply an alive.
An that the Ten Commandments never num-
bered more than five,
But his grammar mostly needed double coat
of paint,
FUR he said "hisen" stead of "hisent" an
''haint" instead of CANT"
De SAID That klplln 8 pc try always Drought
about pain,
An when the war broke out last spring he
asked, 'Well, whar is Span?"
lie couldn't tell the diff renee tween circle
an square,
An said the atmosphere had no burned bust
ness in the air.
he couldn't add up fggers fur hundred dol
lar note.
lie never heard of Shakespeare. never wore
decent coat.
ae used to tell our preacher that his sermon
no good,
Because his words were so big they could not
be understood
But there never was Teller in this Rocky
mountain land
Who could deal himself often wondrous
poker hand,
Who could open every jack pot, fill his f1ushes
and his straights,
An who never showed down nothin less than
kings backed up by Fights,
Who could trim the tender footer, who could
make us all believe
That there wasn't when there was, thought
seven aces up his sleeve.
Bill was king of poker players an he covered
every bet,
An, if he was alvin why he'd be our mayor
yet.
