From lowly bootblack of the town To merchant prince of high renown, Or butcher, baker, candle-maker, Lawyer, doctor, undertaker, Priest or farmer, young or old, Or rich or poor within the fold, So that his spirit bows before The bondage of the full box score— Whatever be his name or fame, So that his heart leans to the GAME.
