(By Oman Richardson)
The Kaiser Of Germany had a fright
full manner,
When he heard our soldiers sing the
Star Spangled Banner;
He said to his men, the victory we will
win, for onward we go,
But now he realizes that you reap
what you sow.
They never ceased to stop in playing
their mischievous tricks
Cntil the old U. S. A. into it did mix;
The Kaiser's firm belief was the VIC
tory he had won,
But Uncle Sam declared that the fight
had just begun.
Always remember as onward you go,
That the good Book says you reap
what you SOW.
The Kaiser then declared they'll sing
that song or die,
l wouldn't care so much, but it makes
me feel so dry;
Even the Crown Prince did rare and
rain when our men said long may
it wave.
Now listen old man, no matter where
you go,
Always remember that you reap what
you SOW.
The Kaiser always thought the ruler
he would be,
But now he's changed his mind, for
its the old U. S. A.
He then fled to Holland to forget his
troubles you know,
But he new realizes that You reap
what you sow.
