Show UU ' NOT AFTER AUGUST THE FIRST You might be a jolly good fellow. But not after August the first, You can drink till you're feeling quite mellow, But not after August the first. You can't buy a cocktail, or beer by the pall, To quench the old dmon of thirst, You can get coca cola or lemon extract To drink after AOgust the first. Your wine you can buy at a swell cabaret, cab-aret, But not after August the first Your gin rickey co:ts a big part of your pay. But not after August the first. You can't stay out all night to sit up with a friend, And so home to your wife to be nursed. You can get soda water at any drug store, To drink after August the first. You can always be found at home or the club, Every night after August the first. You can always be found at the office or shop, Ever day after August the flrsL Your wife can dress swell, and you can look well. The Inch cost of living you 11 burst. You'll have lots of friends and money to spend, You will live after August the first. FRED C. NAISBITT. no |
