The Little Japan#e.
Tho*t> Ib a little Islnud
Iti the far eastern sea,
Where dwell a little people,
They call the Japauee.
And oh how'patriotic,
These little devils are
To go np in the Arctic
And fight the Russian Bar.
They have licked them at Port Arthur,
And also Chemulpo,
They show their superiority,
Against the Northern foe. '
The Jap he is out numbered,
But that doesn't always conut,
For he’s made of red hot thunder,
And like lightning gets about.
Yes the Russian Bar will be sorry
Ere tills little fray lias ceased,
For its enough to make them worry,
T.iose little Japanecse.
Soon you’ll see t he grizzly running,
■With a Jap close on his trail,
Out of Manchuria forever lie’ll bo hum*
ming,
Then skate across lake Baikal*
