Show SIXTEEJf TO OXEp A young Lochinvar came out of the west Of all the great statesmen his speech was the best Taking truth for his subject other weapons wea-pons had none But the cause of free silver at sixteen to one Then away with false prophets and give us a man Who will stand for the cause that the people demand A third Savior weve found To the rescue res-cue has come Hell champion our cause of sixteen to one On to the conflict To the White House make speed A check must be placed on monopolys greed See goldbugs are fighting Theyre now on the run Theyre afraid of the issue of sixteen to one Dome The people awaken and arise in their might To hail you their chieftain who dares to do right Now the battle is on without firing a gun Tie a fight for the silver at sixteen to one i 1 See the hordes who are idle and In piteous pite-ous appeal Are begging the privilege of earning a meal A hero is needed for the wrongs that are done To restore the white metal at sixteen to one Our countrys in peril by the hoarders of gold Causing misery and want yet the hairs not been told How weve borne our burdens is a mystery mys-tery to some When relief could be had at sixteen to one George Allen |
