No. 31. Marching Through Kansas.
AIR: No. 32.
The election now is over, boys, we'll have a four yours' rest;
The promises that were given us, we happily will test;
And if they are fulfilled, boys, the party we will bless,
While we are marching through Kansas.
CHORUS.
Come, boys, come! let's down Monopoly!
Come, boys, come! from bankers set us free,
And vote no more for lawyers, but farmers they must be,
While we are marching through Kansas.
If I was a Republican I wouldn't try to kill
The blessings that are contained in a free coinage bill;
And the bankers up in Wall street had better now keep still,
While we are marching through Kansas.
Chorus.
I think the time is coming, and it now is very near,
When the music of our farmers the congressmen will hear,
That something else we want, besides adjourning for the beer,
While we are marching through Kansas.
Chorus.
Resolving and adjourning, consumes all their time,
Except what is spent in drinking of the wine;
While working for monopoly, they never waste the time,
While we are marching through Kansas.
Chorus.
5. When we send them up to Washington, it's not upon their minds,
The duties they have found is of another kind.
To work for the farmers they haven't go the times,
While we are marching through Kansas.
Chorus.
