You take thine, and 111 take mine, And one alone we're leaving. III. Ha! ha! ha! How glad we are! And we will all forsake him. The bachelor alone must go, For nobody will take him. Ha! ha! ha! How glad we are! And we will all forsake him. The bachelor alone must go, For nobody will take him. FORMATION: Double circle. Odd man in center. I. Grand right and left. Odd man cuts into circle. II.
