The Old Town Bored

Inc OlQ lOWn Bored
{ In little country village
! One Monday night in May,
The old town Bored assembled
J In grand and full array.
And as the scented Zephrs
Waited out the sweet refrain
Fond memories of our town Bored
Went flashing through my brain.
How often, many year ago
. ambed down the street
Harmless, hatless, coatless,
The old town Board to meet.
! How longed to be the Marshal
With the schooners when they clashed
Gay uniform with polished star
In the lamp light how it flashed.
heard them say wise sayings.
At the town hall near the bank
| heard their mournful cadence
AS the amber fluid sank.
saw them look important
At the old time city Mare.
And heard the wise quotations
!. At the town hall near the square.
. Here the marshal and his budde
Promised always to be true;
While the sound of empty schooners
! Floated out into the blue.
How used to smile and listen
When the Bored would strike plan
And Uncle jake would do the winy dance
When the Doctor shot the can.
I've wandered far in other towns
I've seen some famous Boreds
From Maltersville to Huntingburg;
; From Dale to Seitz's ford.
. But when the evening shadows fall
| dream of Jasper's horde
And again in fancy seem to hear
The breaks of our old Bored.
So when life's busy scene is Ger
And stand before the gate,
trust that good Saint Peter.
Will not say ALAS too late"
For know that shall ask him
In q modest sort of way
To let me hear the funny breaks
Our town Bored used to make
