Office or look like 30 cents, but to get
left, makes some OF the defeated mes
take to booze. That Is what makes us
shy. But we are in the hands of our
friends. May the Lord bless them.
AS We were coming from the Springs,
And we're wandering DER the land,
The moon was shining brightly,
We held her little-shawl,
Yes, we held her little shawl.
How fast the evening flies!
We spoke In gentle tones Of love
We gazed into her-lunch basket.
We gazed into her lunch basket,
We wished we had a taste
There sat my lady charmer,
My arms around her-umbrella.
Embracing that umbrella,
That charming little miss,
Her eyes SO full of mischief,
We slyly stole a--sandwich.
