THE TROOPER’S SONG O F SPRING The poets will sing sweet songs of spring, And in verse their feathers preen, But bright, balmy days, all troopers praise When the grass is turning green. When wild winds blow ’mid winter’s snow And hungry days are seen, By troopers old and fakers bold, Before the grass is green. You sit and growl, nd Boreas vents his spleen; while blizzards howl But you'll forget all that, I'll bet, When the grass is turning green. Away with care, when Spring’s in the air, Though of ducats your pockets are clean; Soon the band will play, end we'll turn ‘em away, For the grass is turning green. The 7 wagons will roll and make glad your sou When the TOP in the air is seen And the band will play, day after "day, Now the grass is turning green. Under the TOP, Forgetting then how mean And mad you felt, Before the grass was green. L’ENVO! the coip you'll cop, without no geldt, So here’s to the trooper, gay and bright, A good fellow everywhere. He’s ever ready to help a pal And with him his roll to share. Let’s The best he’s ever seen. hope with him this year will be So here’s Good Luck, may you not regret, The grass is turning green. <2 ee eee ie | Routes Ahead [IL Managers and Performers are tfully partment.
