Love And Logic
I loved a girl in days of yore--
A girl who said me nay
Because she loved another more;
That's why I went away!
And then I wandered everywhere
About this earthly ball,
And met a lot of maidens fair
Who held my heart in thrall.
For there were girls in Kankakee,
And girls in Rio, too;
Wherever chance has landed me
Were pretty girls to woo;
In Boston town or far Japan,
In panama and Nome;
But each one loved another man--
And that's why I came home!
