There are blessings for you and the men far away,

In a King on a throne and a King there to stay.

His robe is pure white, but the proud make it gay;

Ah, what mercy, what power and amazing foresight

In a King on a throne and a King there to stay—

You’ve a friendly old monarch who’s ever upright!

THE COTTON GIN

At a cotton gin the King’s made thin,

Yet never shows the least chagrin,

In his sunny home in Dixie’s land,
