In a time that no man knows;

Yet here tonight, in the mellow light,

Near the race-track at Pamlico,

Our eyes are dotted with half-carat stones

That shine like the Devon Springs;

And cute Flappers display us in public

Quite as proudly as diamond rings.

It makes no difference if we are rolled

For a dollar, five, or ten.

Our love is cold, our game is old,
