Gone is the glint and glory of battle, Silent the Mauser and the cannon's roar; No longer do we hear the musket rattle We cheer our heroes from the war no more. But from a mighty Nation there emerges A person, bruised and battered, grim and great; And round him, with a yell, his country surges The football man's the hero up to date. He's padded, leather capped and dressed for slaughter, He wears no uniform nor coat of blue, Nor shining buttons, but each modern daughter Likes him much better than the men who do. Crowned with our blossoms violet, red and yellow He stands with haughty mien to meet our gaze He's not beautiful, but he's the fellow At whom just now we're throwing our boquets. He is our newest hero nicer, later Than gallant boys in blue who spiked the guns The man who fights is great, but there's a greater: The lightning-legged football chap who runs) What do we care for recent history's cackle? By military anecdote we're bored) We want a rush, a touchdown or a tackle The pigskin no v is mightier than the sword. We've most forgotten e'en our greatest hero, He's shelved securely in the Hall of Fame; War just at present really rates at zero; Football's a vastly interesting game. The Stars and Stripes we are coolly shaking For pennants crimson, blue, and black-and-tan-Say, can you see them by the dawn's first breaking? The eagle's screaming for the football man! Town Topics.
