A German Band across the street Its way was slowly wending, Which was a movement indiscreet, The way that things were tending The Go-cart struck the bass drum square, And passed completely through it. The Drummer madly tore his hair And said, "Vy did you do it?" |
|
Some Workingmen were putting in A heavy plate-glass front. The Go-cart then came rushing in And did its little stunt It smashed to bits a crystal pane Two sweating men were bearing, And sped on down the slanting plane And left them mad and swearing! |
|
An automobile big and brown Was chugging up the hill, And met the Go-cart plunging down With speed that boded ill At once there rose a noise and din Of people in dismay. A Sandwich-man then butted in And opened up a way! |
|
A Lad was rushing with a Hat Some Lady had been buying— The Go-cart caught—and laid him flat, And sent the hat-box flying The Hat fell out and settled down Upon our Bobby's head. "Say, I'm the swellest kid in town!" The precious rascal said |
|
A Newsboy next was somehow hit— The Go-cart, swift and dextrous, Contrived to muss him up a bit And fill the air with extras One copy Bobby neatly scooped, And saw this wild display, In type so bold it fairly whooped: "A GO-CART BREAKS AWAY!" |
