As composed and sung by William Gregg, of New Orleans, La. My Grandfather H«.we, thirty-five years ago Lay dreaming at midnight in lied, Next morning he told to a wondering world Of all that passed through his head. And this was thesong that hesung to his chums As they chucklingly formed in a ring : The Weeler 4 Wilson and Singer went in And agreed to a very wicked thing. CUORUS— Thirty years of monopoly, Ring, Ring, Ring! Millions put in our treasury, Sing, Sing, Sing! But they stopped short, never to go again, When the "White" became king. The next thing they did was our Congress to bribe The extension of pateuts renew, Thus millions of money were wrung from the poor By these tyrants, the privileged few. But there came a glad day when our wrongs were made right, Our nation as one man arose, And said to Congress, our servants ye are, So down the monopoly goes. CHORUS—Thirty years, etc. As the day of our freedom has come to us now, We're allowed all the patents to use, So old Mr. Singer just take a back seat, For all your bad points we refuse. And now let us shout of a perfect machine, Selt-threading and quiet and light ; So friends all unite in the chorus we sing, As we tell of the beautiful "White." CHORUS —Thirty years, etc. The "White" sewing machine is for sale by Von Johnston, Butler, Pa. Assignee** feale of Yalnable Real Estate.
