Gabriel’s Trump

The young man led for a heart,

The maid for a diamond played,

The old man came down with a club,

And the sexton used a spade.

It wasn’t the folly of Willie and Molly

Nor the heat of the sun or the sands,

That made Willie silly, and Molly so jolly,

’Twas the Whiz Bangs they had in their hands.
