There was a fellow named Drain
OF his bowling he was vain
In a contest one night, he felt out of
sight,
With the pins he was just raising cain;
So he picked out the Captt of the
Assembly team
One Of the stars OF the oliver gang.
And wagered a Salzberg (reiying on
his steam)
A larger score on the sheet he would
hang;
In matters pertaining 70 sports he was
very cOnceited
And was almost sure he had the
Capt defeated;
Thinking that he with his speedy ball
COULD hit the pins anywhere and make
them fall;
Drain started in with revengeful in
tent
And the Cap't's thiY' dime he already
seen spent;
But the Capt was steady and shooting
that night
While Sam was so rotten he was clear
out Of sight.
When We summed up the total he
felt not so fine,
He had four twenty-three while the
Capt had -naught-nine,
Now ! don't want you TO think sam
made a foolish bet,
Because Of that hard earned SalZberg
the Capt has seen nothing yet.
