FOOLS OF FORTY NINE
When gold was found in forty-eight, the people said 'twas gas,
And some were fools enough to think the lumps were only brass.

The poor, the old, the rotten scows were advertised to sail
To New Orleans with passengers, but they must come and bail.
The ships were crowded more than full, but some hung on behind,
And others dived off from the wharf, and swam 'till they were blind.

The steerage passengers would rave and swear they'd paid their passage
They wanted something more to eat besides the lowly sausage.

And those at sea, 'fore they were dead, were launched into the deep.
And those that died, crossing the plains, fared not as well as that.
For holes was dug and they was dumped along the terrible Platte.

Christmas Swing Lyrics
The turkey in our radar range has roamed too far from home We mailed our Christmas wishes in, now Santa's on his own Momma wants some tupperware, Daddy wants a Stetson There's snow on all the prickly pear,
