CAS- 1t il, IL the idea given OF 1t in tne

correctly
on the beach Of Wikkywikky.
Twenty thousand dusky maids
Were packed together like sardines
Expecting serenades,
On waves they swan, on boughs they
On straps attached to palms they hung.
And waited patiently.
Till twenty thousand Yankees rude
Came jostling through the multitude
And sang this melody:
"Oh, my Hawaiian fay.
I'll serenade you daily,
Having learned to play
Upon the ukulele;
1t certainly is more than queer
That l should journey over here
To advertise my passion,
And be irrevocably bent
On twanging this freak instrument;
But, maiden. it's the fashion,!
The twenty thousand ladies
With Cupid's arrows shot,
Annexed those twenty thousand men
And wed them on the spot,
They journeyed Ger the Southern seas
Amid stentorian melodies,
While void of maids and men,
And Of the ukulele's glut.
Was lovely Wikkywikky-But
1t soon filled up again!
