That One Floating Vote.

Down at the town av Springfield, phwhere our statesmin congregate

To draw their wages twicet a month to git John Logan bate,

The Dimmycrats is tremblin’ and a sweatin’ wid dismay

On account av O’Shea.

The all av thim is solid for our horizontal Bill,

And the all av thim is solid for reform and office—shtill

The all av thim is worried to anticipate the play

Contemplated by O’Shea.

Bill Morrison shtands here, and Logan he shtands there,

And whin the wotes is even, there’s a tie bechune the pair;

But whin it comes to wotin’, can innybody say,

Phwhere the divil is O’Shea?
