Down in Poverty Row
Parody— Written by Frank J. Murray.
Ontflide of a dnsty tenement,
With every flat to let.
In one there lives nn Irish girl
Who can't speak German yet;
She blows up tires for bicycles.
And she's all riciit on tlie l)low.
With a wheel in lier heac!, an<l often it's said.
She's a good thing iu Poverty Row.
CUORtTf.
Down in Poverty Row, don't ask me where.
You can live without a cent if you only breathe the air;
Eacli girl has her l>oy, and so so, don't you Uiiow:
There's none of them riglit, you can take wliat you like,
Down ill Poverty Row.
In winter time the snow will fall
At night as well as day.
And tlien ttiey all eal enow-balls,
It's cheai)er tlian eating bay: ^ ".
They nil dance 'round \\\>axi the ice,
And any old thing will go,
Tlien they sing far and near, 'My Dad's tbe Engineer,'
All 'roniid in Poverty Row.
Chorus.
Down in Poverty Row, don't ask me where.
You can live witliout a cent if you only breathe the air;
Each girl has her l)oy, and so so, don't you know;
There's non<- of tliem riuht, you can take what you like,
Down ill Poverty Row.

Just Tell Them that Yeu Saw Me
Parody— Written by Fnink J. Murray.
While standing on ray feet one night, a change from on ray head-
'Twas after I had chewed a chicken pie—
I saw a cop wlio saw me, be was looking iiungry, too.
And wieilied that he was half as full as I.
"Is that you, Patf " said I to liiin; says he, "Begob, it is;
I've got to pull some one or lose me job:
I guess I'll run yon in, me boy, before I will forget."
Bays I, "Alt right, but when you see tbe mob—
■■ ■"■■^,;-, •■■>:■.-■,'';• • Chorus.
••Jnst say that I was with you, or that I saw yon last;
Just telephone I'm working, 'nit,' you know:
Just spring it, I've been hypnotized and got it in the hip,
Just tell them any old thing, it wiM go."
While riding down the bay one niglit within a cable car.
After tlie conductor pinched my fare,
I saw a eirl who worked for nte when I ran a "Cbing" laundry.
And writing checks in Cliiiiee language there.
*' I'm gla<l to see you. Jack, acain," that's wliat she said to me;
I said, " I'm sorry that we met at all:
I owe your mother twenty, Kate, and sister 'l)oat the same.
But I'll l)C 'round to see them when I call.
Chobdb. •■■; ,
" So tell tliem that yon saw me and T was fast asleep,
Just tell them I was trying to touch you:
Then whisper to your sister if she'ii let me have a ten,
I could love her better tlian I used to do."

While strolling along with the city's vast throng.
On a night tliat was bitter cold,
I noticed a crowd, who were laughing alond
At sometiiing they chanced to beliold:
I stopped for to see wliat tlie object could be,
And there, on a doorstep, lay
A woman in tears, from tlie crowd's angry jeers,
And then I beard sonielrady say:
Chorus.

She may liave seen better days _; ' .'

She may yet mend her ways;

":^.^" :
" If we could hut tell why the poor creatnre fell.
Perhaps we'd not be so severe;
ir the truth were but known of this outcast alone,
Mayhap we would ail shed a tear.
She was once some one's joy, cast aside like a toy-
Abandoned, forsaken, unknown."
Every man standing by had a tear in bis eye.
For some bad a daughter at home.— Vhorug.
The crowd went away, but I Joneer did stay.
For from her I was loath to depart;
I knew by her moan, as she sat there alone.
That something was breaking her lieart.
She told me her life— she was once a good wife,
Respected and honored by all;
Ber husband had fled ere iliey were long wed.
And tears down her cheeks sadly tuXL—CliorUi,

Though iiicinory broiiu'tit nji; s-onie thontflits sad and dreary.
Yet ollivrn ciiine. too. Hint "ere cheerful and jjay,
When, all of II eiMlil.n. 1 found my eye r.slinf;
On soniciliinu rlmr brouolii many pcriies to my mind—
' r\va« an old jiiiek of cardtJ, and «>onif tales interesting
I tlioML'hi iliat I nii},'l^i in tiicir liitiiory llnd.
Tlie flrst scene iliat I eaw that iiiL'lit I thoiiulit \va9 quite a iileaBant Bight,
A irrand old room al)liize with liirlit— I uhiiKptreil, "Kind ngards,"
Whilst 'round ilic board eat youii" and old, tliey played for love and not for gold.
Whilst joy and sorrow all iiniold was tii that pack of cards.
The next eceno I saw filliMl my lieart with creat pity-
It waa u youni; man, and Ids parenls 1 knew;
'TwaB Uieir only eon, wlioni they'd pent to the city
To sillily and i;row u|i a geiitU'inun I run.

To live on ilie hest and for (>tndy In pay; '
They km-w nor lliat evil coni|>anlo;iB enticed liim
Away from his oiiidU'S at poker to play.
I saw liini as he Itft liie seat, he never tlio)i{;ht his pais would cheat:
Each time he pia>ed he met defeat, and biIH lie called them pards;
But there will come a reck'ninc day, and he will lliroimli tliiB foolish play
BriiiK sorrow in the old folks' way, all through that pack of cards.
The last scene of all I beheld with much sorrow.
For there wne the scene of the gambler's black fate; ■
No tlioimht had they got of the waking to-morrow.
Though then they'd repent but to find it too late.
The briuht Kold was etaclved by Hie side of each player,
The miser's black creed was in every man's heart.
As quickly the bets p;issed twixt hacker and layer.
And ruin was king lu the devil's slave mart.
" I'll Slake a hundred on this came." " I'll go yon, sir." " I'll do the same."
Wlio care^ for misery and shame, as each his" treasure guards.
"Yon lie! 1 saw you iiirn that an- "—a smaMliini; blow ritihr in the face —
A pistol shot, and death's disgrace was in that pnck of cards.
PAT MALONE FORGOT
THAT HE WAS DEAD.
'i
While standing on my feet one night, a change from on my head—
'Twas after I had chewed a chicken pie—
I saw a cop who bi.w me, he was looking hungry, too,
And wished that he was half as full as I.
"Is that yon, Pat?" said I to him; eavB he, "Begob, it is;
I've got to pull some one or lose me Job;
1 guess I'll run you in, me l)oy, before I will forget."
Says I, "All right, but when you see the mob—
Chorus.
" Jiisf eny that I was with yon, or that I saw yon last;
Just telephone I'm working, 'nit,' you know;
Just spring it, I've been hypnotized and got It in the hip,
Just tell them any old thing, it will go."'
While riding down the bay one night within a cable car, . ■
After the conductor pinched my fare,
I Baw a girl who worked for ine when I ran a "Chint " laundry,
And writing checks in Cliinee language there.
" I'm glad lo see you. Jack, again," that's what she said to me;
I said, " I'm sorry that we met at all,
I owe your mother twenty, Kate, and sieter 'bout the same,
But I'll he 'round to see them when I call.
CHontTS.
"So tell them that yon saw me and I was fast asleep, _ "
Just tell ihem I wax trying to touch you;
Then whisper to your sister if she'd let me have a ten,
I could love her better than 1 used to do."
I Love You Yet

Times were bard in Irish town, ev'rything was going down.
And Pat Malone was pushed for ready cash;
De for life insurance spent all his money to a cent.
So all of Ins alYairs had gone to smash.
But his w ife spoke up and said: "Now. dear Pat, if yon were dead.
That twenty thousand dollars wc cmild take."
And eo Pat lay d'>wn and tried to make out that he had died.
Until he smelt the whiskey at the wake;
Then Pat Malone fort'ot that he was dead.
He raised himself ami shouted from the bed:
"If this wake goes on a minute, the corpse lie must be in it;
You'll have to get. m»? drunk to keep me dead."
Then Pat Mahme forgot that lie was dead;
He rairieil himself and shouted from ttie bed:
" If th'B wake goes on a minute, tiic corpse be must be in it;
You'll have to get nu' drunk to keep me dead."
Then they gave the corpse a sup, afterwards they filled him up.
And laid him out again upon tne bed:
Then before the morning gray ev'rybody felt so gay,
They all forgot he only played off dead.
So they took him from the bunk, still alive, but awful drnnk.
And put liiin in tlie conin. with a pray'r;
But the driver of fiie cart said: " Bedad, I'll never start
Until I see that some one pays the fare."
Then Pat Malone forgot that he was dead;
He sat up ill the cotlln, while he said:
"If you dare to doubt my credit, you'll Ik; sorry that yon said it;
Drive on, or else the corpse will break your head."
Then Pat Malone forirot that be was dead;
Ue sat up In the coflin, w hile he said:
"If you dare to doubt my credit, you'll be sorry that you said it;
Drive on, or else the corpse will break your head."
So the fiin'ral started out on the cemetery route.
And the neii;libors tried ibc widow to console.
Till they stoppe.l be«ide the base of Malone'8 last resting place.
And ueiitly loweicd Patrick in the hole.
Then M.iloiie beLan to see, just as plain as one, two, three.
That he'd forgot to reckon on the end;
So. as cloiis beuaii lo drop, be broke off the coffln top,
And to the caith he quickly did ascend.
Then Pat Malone forjjot that be was dead,
' And from the cemetery quickly fleil;
He came nearly going under; it's a lucky thing, by thunder.
That Pat Malone I'oroot that he was dead.
Then Pat Malone forgot that he was dead,
And from the Cemetery quickly fled;
He came nearly going under; it's a lucky thing, by thunder,
Tbat Pat Haloue forgot that he was dead.

You pressed ine lo your loving side;
You to<ik my hand Wit bill your own.

But all! you little dreuin'd I knew
That you were faithless and iintrae.

And now I wander sad and lone, the past a drear and vain regret,
And the' your many vows were broken, 1 cannot help, I love you yet.
"I loved you better than yon knew, machrce" —
Those were the words you spoke to me.
And tho' I thought yon loved me as you said,
i knew that tins could never be.
For woman's lieart is not a toy.
One deed her love will oft destroy;

I'm a celebrated workingman, me duty I never Shirk;
I can do more work than any inim from Pittsburgh to New York;
It's a perfect holy terror, boys, how I'll get through me work.
Providing I can do it in a barroom.
I'll hoist derricks with me ehouliler, push freight cars with me breath.
That will make the boss feel tickled, till he's on the edge of death.
But, between us nil, now whisper that I only have to sweat.
When I'm doiug manual labor iu the barroom.
There are coppers without nnmlwrs, with their well-developed chests.
Who make the most astouiuliiig of ihe whole police arrests:
They'll pound the air with vengeance, then dilate their manly chests;
If you II only chase the liquor in a barroom.
They will catch thieves wltliout immhers, they'll be up to snuff, yon see;
They've cau<!ht a hundred murderers, including you and me.
But you'll find oat when you know tliem that they must have twenty-three
Of the very largest schooners in the barroom.
There are actors who have acted in a hundred different rolet.
And some whose fame esteiul beyond those two cotifoiinded poles.
But you'll find their acting qualiiies lies deep wiihin their souls.
And they draw their inspirations from a barroom.
Their poses are heroic, and their methods are sublime:
They give old Garrick cards and spades, their soul is full of rhyme,
But when you come to solve them you will find that at the trime
They only do their John McCul lough's in a barroom.
There's the politician robust, with his pre-election ways, "
Who works his fine iiiflneiice on the blooming Fourth Ward jayi^ ':
And for fourteen kegs of lager then his nolis he boldly pays.
And he operates his canvass in the barroom;
But when tlie election's o'er and the free l)eer is all gone, -'- ';
He'll wonder how the deuce it was that his opponent won;
He'll find out that I voted for the other son of tt gun,
And I Often jollied heelers iu the barroom. - .■

Id a cozy little cottage sat a couple old and gray,
A Are lu the hearth was burning bright,
Tiiere a letter they were reudlug frum their son who went astray;
He left them on one cold and winl'ry night:
His companions, whom were evil, hud him forge bis father's name;
The parent, in his an^er, wished him dead:
But the sou had since repented, and this letter home had come.
And to bis wife these words the old man read :

Let roe tabe my place at iioine again.
Back amonn the dearest friends of all,
;' Back to mother's dear caress, and your old age I will bless,
i Then let me talie my place at borne again.
Now the old man would not listen to the pleadings of his lioy,
Tbe dear old mother's health soon gave away.
For her heart was Badly pining for her son, her only Joy,
Who left them in both sorrow and dismay;
One night as they were sitiing by their cozy fireside.
The sou was brouuht in pule and ill from need.
Then the father he foreuve him, and with joy the mother cried.
And now my lad no longer has to plead:— C'fwnis.

Just to hear her speuk in loving sympathy.
Just to kit's her lips attain.
Just to liave hiT fondle me with tender care.
Just to feel ber dear, soft finders ihrooirh my hair,
■ ' There is no wish iu this world that can compare.
Just to be a child at motlier's knee."
There they sat, those jolly drummers, not a sound that moment heard.
While their tears were slowly falling, there was no man spoke a word,
For the memories of their childhood days had louched their dear kind heartB,
When, as children, they had played at mother's knee.
Then at last the spell was broken by another traveling man,
"Your attention for a moment I do crave;
I will tell you of one precious thing, bo dear to one and all.
'Tie a wiah we long for to tbe very grave:
Chorus.
Jnst enough of gold to keep me all my days.
Just enough with which some starving soul to save,
Just enough I wish to help me on my way,
Just enough to happy be.
Just enoueh to know I'll ne'er be poor acain.
Just enough to drive away all sorrow's pain.
You may wish for many things, but all in vain.
Give to me what precious gold can buy."
The conductor, passing thronch the train, stopped In the Bmoking-car;
He had grown quite interested in the stories told so fiir—
" Please excuse my interruption, but I listened with delight .„ .
To your wishes, l)oth of them so good and true;
Yet there is a wish that's dearer, bitter far than glittering gold.
Though a simple one perhaps you all will say,
'Tis a longing that is in my heart each moment of my life,
Tia a gleam of BUUBliiue strewn across my way :
Chobub.
Just to open wide my little cottage door, / v ^
- , Jnst to see my baby rolling on the fl.—,
• ;' Jnst to feel that I have something to adore, • • ^
" Jnst to be at home again, \. - . *?■ -
-■ Just to hear a sweet voice calling papa dear, ; -... '
Just to know my darling wife Is standing near;
You may have your gold your lonely heart to cheer.
But I'll tidie my baby, wife and home."

She never saw the etieets of Cairo, on the Midway sbe had never strayed,
She never saw the katchy, kutcby— poor little country maid.

Now he's Borry that he met her, and he never will forget her;
In the future he'll know better— poor little maid.

Matt Casey formed a social club that beat the world for style.
And hired for a meeting place a ball;
When pay-day came around each week, they'd greased the floor with WAS,
And danced with noise and vigor at the ball:
Each Saturday you'd see thi'm dressed up in Sunday clothes.
Each lad would have his swet-theart by liiB tiide:
When Casey led the first grand iiiarcli the rest would fall in line]
Behind the man who was their joy and pride— for
Chorus.
Casey would waltz with a strawberry blonde,
And the baud played on;
He'd glide 'ctoes the floor with the girl he adored.
And the band p'ayed on;
But his brain was so loaded it nearly exploded,
The poor girl would ehake with alarm;
He'd ne'er leave tlie girl with the strawberry curls.
And the baud played on.
Snch klBsing in the corner and such whigp'ring in the hall.
And telling tales of love behind the Btaiis;
As Casey was the favorite and b<- that ran tlie ball, /
Of kiesing and love-making did his Bhare; ;,....
At twelve o'clock exactly they all would fall in line, , ■
Then inarch down to tlie dining ball and eat;
But Casey would not joiu them, although every thing was line,
But he'd stayed np-stairs and exercise his feet— for— t'Aorw*.
Now when the dance was over and the band played " Iloiue, sweet horn*,**
They played a tune at Casey's own request;
He'd thank them very kindly for the favoTs they hud shown; . - ^ ■.■-■'
Then he'd waltz once with the girl that he loved beet;
'Most all the friemls are married that Casey used to know.
And Casey, too, has taken him a wife;
The blonde he used to waltz and glide with on the ball-room flooia ' ! : 'V
Is happy Missis Casey now for life— for— CAorws.

Said he to her kindly, "Now you must not cry,

And she answered Jennie, it made him exclaim:
"At last of your mother I have now a trace —
Tour little features bring back her sweet face." .'",

I noticed a crowd, who were laughing aload
At something tliey chanced to behold: ;■
I stopped for to Bee what the object coald be.
And there, on a doorstep, lay
A woman In tears, from the crowd's angry jeers.
And then I heard somebody say:
Chorus.
She may have seen better days, when she was In her prime;
She may have seen better days once npon a time:
Though by the wayside she fell, she may yet mend her ways;
Some poor, old mother is waiting for her, who has seen better days.
^ < If we could but tell why the poor creature fell, , -

If the truth were but known of this ontcaat alone, '
Mayhap we wonld all abed a tear.

Abandoned, forsaken, onknown.
Svery man standing by had a tear in his eye,
For some had a daughter at home.— Chonu, ; . ;. ' '

Dressed in a bathing suit of colors gay.
When, like a mouse, from bathing-house,

She gave a sigh, hut did not cry.
And then pluckily she started out for home.

They say I am a giddy maid,
Not half enoueh in manners staid;
■; , I really try to be <iiBCreet;
I've just come back from school in France,
The matron led me such a dance,
Althonuli my education was complete;
So papa came for me.
To take me home, you see.
He was so proud of me, yon know.
He said, "To Paris we will go.
And there we'll stay for a week,
" ■ So that your French you may speak;
And w lien you go home to mamma, :
Ton'll tell uer what you've seen.
Chobds.
I went to Paris with papa, to see what kind the Frenchmen are,
Sach funny ways they've got— Americans have not;
Ton really should to Paris go; you learn so very much, yoo know;
I saw a lot in Paris that they never taught In school.
And when we came back to mamma,
She gave a ball, with great eclat
She said, " My dear, I'll bring yon out;
Now show tliem what you've learned in France,
How well you sing, how well you dance;
And, mind you, show what manners yon've been tatight.**
So when the dance began,
I to my partner ran, ,.
I kicked ray toes np in the air,
I'd seen them do it over there;
My cigarette I drew,
i, French ladies do that, too,
And our young cnrate blushed so
When I sat upon bis knee.— Chorui.

In a lonely little garret dwelt a once 8weet village belle.
The only place that she dure call a home:
She had inarrivd "gaiiit>t tne wishes of tne dear ones who loved ber eo well.
And now 'midst strangers she was left alone.
A youth from city graml had won her h«-art and hand — r'-"' "'
He'd pictured to her all so hright and Kiiy;
It was then the father told, " All that j-liiters, my child, is not gold."
It soon came true, and she had cause to say:
Cbobus. • ; • .
" If they'd only write and ask me to come home,
I'd feel as though forgivetieps they had shown, - '
And my heart would cease its pain, I'd be happy once again— ■■'
If they'd only write and ask me to come home." , .
In an humble little cottage sits a father bowed in grief,
A mother, too, is weeping by his hide;
They hitve just received a letter, and it told them, in words crael and brief.
That her they loved witii broken heart had died.
Oli. had they only known that she was left alone.
How gladly would they've called h«T back again.
'Tis the story we all tell, "She had loved not wisely, but too well,"
And not theonly one we hear exclaim:— 67(oru«.

One Easter Sunday morning, while the sun was shining clear, ■■:
And good folks to the old cimrch cunic, the parson's prayers to bear; ;-.
They little knew, while sealed there, upon that blewsed day, ' •, ;
A human life wus ending In a home just o'er the way.
A JOan in deejMJst poverty, without a single friend, - v' '-^
Would answer soon ihe c;i.l of death; his life was nearing end, ." -: '' '.
With no one there to coin fort him, no lender words to say —
He heard the morning si ; vice in the church acroes the way.
Chorits.
. The minister wag preaching his good and sacred teaching,
The congregation sat in ecetacy;
'-- .-^ The bells had ju^t ceased ringing, the choir was sweetly singing
" Nearer, my God, to thee."
The preacher's words touched ev'ry heart within those sacred walla;
He told how honor always thrives and how deception falls.
The outcast in that hnmhie home, whose life had been a blank.
Sighed softly at those truthfnl words as nearer death he sank;
He knew not that tln'^ preacher was his honored brother Ned,
Whom he'd not seen for years, not since to bide his crime he fled.
If he could live life o'er again, his thoughts would never stray
From each word taught that morning in the cbnrch acniM tbe way.— Cikffni*-

There's a little snide street, that yon cannot call sweet.
Where the Board of Health often will rally;
It's alwui a yard wide, and the law is defleU—
The police call it Paradise Alley.
Tliere's a girl living there, with crosa eyes and red hair, .
And her front name, ibey tell me, is Sally;
Every day on the street she sells Fraukforlera sweet.
That's the sausage of Paradise Alley.
Chorus.
Every Sunday, even in rain or snow.
With her Frankfort pudding, !long the street she'll go;
All the Iwys then say. In a whisper low.
There goes the sausage of Paradise Alley.
When O'Brien's little boy used that girl to annoy,
They all thought that she wonid not go near him.
But she caught lilm one day, broke his Jaw right away,
JoBt to show them that slie didn't fear him.
When the young man got well, to a friend he did tell
Dow a red-headed girl they called Sally
Bad hit tiim with a bone that was harder than stone—
'Twaa a sansage of Paradise Alley.— CA<7ru«.
Bow her hair it got red, by the neighbors 'tis said.
That, at one time, 'twas black and unsightly.
And young Tommy Killeen said that once it was green.
And then changed to that color so brightly;
So we guess, by the liy, tliHt she uses hair dye.
In a manner, like Mrs. McNally,
And I now do proclaim that the color's the same
As the aaosage of Paradise Alley.— CAoru*.

At a kind oM mother's side sat her eldest boy, her pride.
Who wonId soon arrive at manhood's stage of life.
When the lad b<^gHii to tell of a girl he loved so well.
And intended asking lier to be his wife.
On that loving mother's face care at once your eye conid trace.
Like the change of brightest sunlight into gloam.
" Have you stopped to think," said she, '* what your lot In life sboald be,
Sre you ask a girl to leave a happy home? "
Chords.
When yon ask a girl to leave a happy homestead,
And to sail with you o'er matrimony's foam.
Ton should have employment then, earn your way and llTlng,
When you ask a girl to leave a happy home.
When the kind old mother said, " Tell me, lad. If yon were wed.
How could yon support a wife and dress lier well? "
Bald the lad, ^' Why, we could live on the money yoa woold glT6,
And in one of father's houses we could dwell."
"But the girl," the mother cried, "has a dignity and pride; :'
To depend on ne, from home would never roam ;
Tboogb we'll help yon all we can, we want yon to act a man,
Wn«a yoa aak a girl to laare a happy home."— CAoriM.
Don't yon remember sweet Alice, Ben Boltf
Sweet Alice, with hair so brown.
Who blushed with delight if you gave her a 101110,
And trembled with fear at your frown r
In the old church-yard. In the valley, Ben Bolt,
In a corner ohscnre and lone.
They have fitted a slab of granite so gray.
And Alice lies under the stone.
Under the hickory tree, Ben Bolt,
That stood at the foot of the hill.
Together we've lain in the noonday shade,
And listened to Appletoii's mill.
The mill-wheel has fallen to pieces, Ben Bolt,
The rafters have tumbled in.
And a quiet that crawls 'round the wall as yon gaze,
Takes the place of the olden din.
Do yon mind the cabin of logs, Ben Bolt,
That stood in the pathless woodf
And the button-ball tree, with Its motley Iwnghi,
That nigh by the door-step etood?
The cahin to ruin has gone, Ben Bolt
To would look for the tree in vain:
And where once the lords of the forest stood,
Grows grass and the golden grain.
And don't yon remember the school, Ben Bolt,
And the master so crnel and grim f
And the shady nook in the running brook.
Where the children went to swimf
Grass grows on the master's grave, Ben Bolt,
The spring of the brook is dry.
And of all the boys who were scnoolmates then.
There are only you and I.
There's a change In the things I love, Ben Bolt;
They have changed from the old to the new;
But I feel in the core of my spirit the truth.
There never was a change in yon.
Twelve months twenty have passed, Ben Bolt,
Since flrst we were friends, yet I hail
Thy presence a blessing, thy friendship a tmtb,
Ben Bolt of the salt sea gale.
