American Old Time Song Lyrics: 16 That's All
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 16
THAT'S ALL.
For a topical song your indulgence I seek,
That's all, Unit's all;
If you're patient I'll try and get through in a week,
That's all, that's all.
I've taken great trouble this song to rehearse,
But I do not improve, I'm afraid I get worse,
So if you don't like it I'll sing you one verse,
That's all, that's all.
For acting when young I'd a terrible rage,
That's all, that's all;
And determined to go on the regular stage,
That's all, that's all.
With ray talents I thought I would make the star,
I was sure the first night all the world would be there,
And I opened the door to a rush of cold air,
That's all, that's all.
I went to the club with three dollars in cash,
That's all, that's all;
And at faro I went with a regular dash,
That's all, that's all.
I won over three thousand in seven straight bets,
And I'd mode up my mind how to pay off my debts,
When I left I'd my night-key and two cigarettes,
That's all, that's all.
