The brightest and biggest south of the line ; Did you ever behold one half so fine ? They all admire it and want one too, With its color of red and white and blue. The Barber's Pole was a Telegraph Pole That was burnt and oharred by the firepoor Pole ; And Hennebbt, near whose door it stood, Looked on, m a very disconsolate mood, And said, " We must cover that pole with paint, For the sight of it makes a man feel faint." The Barber's Pole ! the Government Pole ! Was painted by Paine— oh 1 wasn't it droll? The Department gave their kind permission, The job was done without opposition ; But when they discovered its rainbow hue, They didn't approve of the red, white, and blue. The Barber's Pole ! that high colored Pole ! The Department objected to Henneßsy'e Pole. You must paint it again, for we have control, Oc else we will paint it as blaok aa a coal. To think that a Telegraph Pole so fine. Should thus be turned into a Barber's sign ! The Barber's Pole ! What a rigmarole ! Oh ! the fuss they made of that Barber 1 ! Pole! If you want a sign you must advertise : We cannot permit of a pole suoh asize. But after a time they grew more wise, And suggested a sort of a compromise. The Barber's Pole we've got m a hole, We will not allow suoh a great big Pole ; It's against regulations, and makes folia laugh; ■ But we'll compromise by giving you naif. So the end of it was they finished »jw figfc By getting one half of it pain' 1 rhito. The Barber's Pole, like old Ills a merry old soul— that Bart ,1 1 It towera aloft, and delights cc •! •— And tells you that Henness? 1 n <-- joo Oy It is still the finest m all the lauu, And points the way to the grand Old Stand M.
