“THE BAB’LBy Shan T. BoyOh Isaac, dear Isaac, bring over yourl *'barL . . ' '' -4The boys here are waiting for you,Come over and see us as soon as you can,Show us what your big bar’l can do.The boys are all thirsty, and nearly dead broke,And politics mixed in a snarl.Come over and help us to straighten things out,And please don’t forget your big bar’l.Dear Isaac, if on the political sea,Your wish is in safety to sail,And be wafted toward the congressional halls,By a gentle republican gale;If towards those wide halls you would peacefully glide.Borne on the republican wind.Come over and see us come here right awayAnd don't leave your bar’l behind.Come over to Wausau, go up “on the* line,”Spread your musty old greenbacks around,As your big bar’l comes over the cor-duory roadsWe gladly will welcome the sound.‘Tis expensive we know, but we musthave some cash,And we don’t want to have any quarrel,And if you want to tread the congressional hall,You must come and bring over your bar’lThe boys here will greet you with laughter and song, *And boost you to congress once more,If you only will bring your big bar’l along,And sling the contents as before.So Isaac, dear Isaac, come over here soon,We are all tangled up in a snarl,We want a few greenbacks to straighten us out,Then come and bring over your bar’l.
