SONG OF THE AUTOMOBILE.

By Joe Cone.

I am coming, I am coming, don't you hear my thunder roll,

Don't you feel my mighty power thro' your body and your soul;

Don't you dread my awful presence, my momentous throbbing feel?

I'm a dashing, thrashing, bucking, clucking

Auto-mo-bile!

I'm a wonder, I'm a snorter, I'm a bull put on parade,

I'm a devil, I'm a terror for the people who're afraid;

I can paralyze the horses, I can make 'em dance a reel,

I'm a rearing, tearing, rumbling, grumbling

Auto-mo-bile!

Clear the track, ye meek and lowly, for I claim the right of way!

There's no limit to my tenure, or my speed by night or day;

To the woods with everybody, that's the way we devils feel,

I'm a lusty, dusty, ramming, jamming

Auto-mo-bile!

_The Pneus._
