The Champs of 1912

Description

V1
Come all ye loyal rooters
We’re going to the game
Oh, let your business take a slump
We are going just the same
For this is Boston’s trn to hoist
That champion banner high
So we’ll cheer those Red Sox fellows up
‘Till the echoes reach the sky
V2
That first game played at “York town”
Joe Wood was at his best
The whole team backed him with a will
And “Steve” Yerkes did the rest
The Giants played a grand, good game
And battle raged galore
But Boston took the extra one
Which gave them the vict’ries four
Chorus
For it’s hip, hip
Hurrah for the Red Sox
They’re the candy Kids today
And the N.Y. Giants had to tip their hats
When Boston came t heir way
“Jake” Stahl, “Heinie” Wagner, Larry Gardner and the rest
Had to dig, dig, dig and delve
But as sure as the sun sets in the West
They’re the champions of Nineteen Twelve
