Here's to the great majority to the ones who were left out;
To the saddened hearts who also ran. but were beaten beyond a doubt.
Today they sit on the mourner's bench, their lives are filled with care.
For the world ie full of deceitful ones, and the county's more than its share.
Here's to the great majority to the boys who did not win. '
They fought their fight as best they could, and to lose was not a sin.
But the words forgot, the pledges broke, is the saddest part of all,
. For they leave a sting with the vanquished ones that nothing can recall. .
Here's to the great majority to the ones who have the blues.
Its the sorrowful side of race that there's( always some to lose.. ,
Your hearts are ead, your pulse is bad there's nothing for you to do, '
But rejoice with those who have won the plums as they would rejoice
with you.
Here's to the great majority the contest's over now..
You can all go back with an empty hand to your shop, or store, or plow.
For the sun will shins and the flowers will bloom, though all is dark today
So cease to mourn, but go back to work, you'll be happier "making hay."
