THE SCHOOL WHERE LINCOLN WENT

Moderato. Words and Music by Will Hardy


Sounds of mirth and music mingled

Cheer your football heroes boys and


in a "swell" café, College boys were celebrating there;

tell of how they won, Boys who wore the crimson or the blue;


Drinking to the heroes of the game they played that day,

Don't forget those other heroes back in Sixty One,


Copyright, 1910, by Will S. Hardy

Cheers for Yale and Harvard filled the air; Suddenly a

Boys who fought to make a chance for you; Cheer for Taft and


vet'ran who by chance was sitting near, Rose and said "Boys, here's a toast before I

Teddy drink to Yale and Harvard too, May their names be loved and honored ev'ry


go While you sing a song of praise to your happy college

where; But fill your glasses fill them full to the little old red


days don't forget the old red school I used to know. Now

school don't forget that Lincoln graduated there. Now

Chorus--not too fast

"Teddy" went to Harvard, "Big Bill" went to Yale; Here's to them! Long years to them! and hearts that never fail; But ere your feast is ended Before the night is spent, Won't you drink to the old red school-house boys? For that's where Lincoln went.


TRY THIS OVER ON YOUR PIANO THAT'S "SOME" HONEYMOON.

CHORUS (not fast) Words and Music by Will Hardy

Out on the sea, with the wind blowing free, You can sit way back by the old smoke-stack, Oh, you hug and Oh, you smack! Let the breezes of June play a tune while you spoon There are only two, she and you; That's "some" honeymoon
