LONESOME STREET In any good old town, Where man were wont to gather To be free from every frown. Whe-e t”iais was never suffered. And where troubles never grow, And where every fair parader Did just what he cared to do. This tho’'oughfa”e was crowded Every day and every night. And wljen other routes were dark ened This was gay and very bright; [f you had a single worry, Or a trouble or a care, You couldn’t put a foot upon This crowded thorougfare. You recall the promenaders. How they gathered on the walk! How thev heralded the fashions With their garments that could talk! On this tho”oughfare they lingered And it’s easy to recall. When it comes to leaisure moments That they seemed to have them all! You can search the old directory. But you will not find It there, Yet each city, and all others. Had this srowded thoroughfare: People smiled when they were on it. And they boasted of it, too. But perhaps you couldn’t blame them. They had nothing, else to do! But we’ve knuckled down to business. And there’s no mo’-e space to romp; There’s no thoroughfare parading Of sheer idleness and pomp; There’s a patriotic duty That all citizens must meet— Which is why each town decided th abolish that old street.
