"MY BUICK." • ; HAVE a-sturdy BUICK, a 1923 . Four, And every ride she's given me has made me long for more; • For when she starts a-purring with a steady, rhythmio peal, The greatest thing in life, my friends, is a seat behind the wheel. I've often heard of Sousa's band, no doubt 'tis very nice, \ And Paderewski's playing brings a mighty handsome price; But I think I know of something that can beat them both for thjrills— Tis the music of my.BUICK when she scampers up the hills. I have braved untrodden snowdrifts, I have been through Noah's flood j I have challenged many sandhills and encountered tons of mud, And through them all my little car has proved to be a brick, For her middle name, efficiency, has always turned the trick. Should I slight her and neglect her till she only has one lung, Even then she'll manage somehow to get me through unstung, For she never is a quitter in whatever game I play, And you cannot get her rattled, for she isn't built that way. But it pays to use her kindly, she'll return it every hour, With the skill of her performance and her wealth of grace and power; Why, she keeps my spirits sailing through a land of milk and honey, For she's right there every quarter with the interest on my money. I'd hate to part with her somehow, she seems so like a friend, » A faithful and resourceful pal whose patience knows no end; There is only one condition that will ever bring me to it— I'll have to have in place of her a handsome, brand new BUICK.
