What was the first thing that he did To make them feel at home? Did he Increase the people's loads and liberty forbid? No, he dug In and built good road That's what old Caesar did. Did Caesar put the Iron heel Upon the foeman's breast? Or did he try to make them feel That Roman rule was best? What did he do to make them glad He'd come their midst amid? He built good roads In place of bad That' what old Caesar did. He built good roads from hill to hill, Good roads from vale to vale; He ran a good roads movement Till old Rome got all theTkale. He told the folks to boy at home, Built roads their bill amid; Until all roads led straight to Rome That's what old Caesar did. If any town would make that town The center of the map, Where folks would come and settle down, And live In plenty' lap; If any town Its own abodes Of poverty would rid; - Let them get out and build good roads Just like old Caesar did.
