Hurrah for Zach!

Air — Rosin the Bow.

Huzza for ZACH TAYLOR, the mighty,
The mighty in peace and in war
The Whigs with his praises grow sprightly,
And hail him their bright morning star!

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the soldier,
The soldier who fought but to win —
A Wellington never was bolder,
Or Europe run conquest has seen.

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the hero,
The hero immortal in fame —
We scornfully pass over each Nero,
And glory in spreading his name!

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the worthy,
The worthy in word and in deed —
He conquered the Mexicans lordly,
And lordly we have him the meed.

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the glorious,
The glorious in conquering the C—ass —
We'll lift up his banner victorious,
And turn his opponent to grass!

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the patriot,
The patriot most pure and refined —
He told us in battle to "fear not,"
And still thro' that "fear not" we'll shine!

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the winning,
To win e'en the ladies so true,
Who glory in glory unshining,
And lend to Old Zach all their beaux!

Huzza for Zach Taylor, the famous,
The famous in peace and in war,
Who'll give all the C—asses the vamose
And Walk to the President's chair.
