. The Orange blossom . 194 THE BAKER GIRLS LAMENT. Broke, broke, broke,And my check isnt due for a week,Oh, I would some friend could utterThe thoughts which I dare not speak. O well for the Baldwin girl. That she lives at home with her dad, Oh well for the laundry boy That collections make him glad. For the basket ball games go onIn the area down in the gym,But I have no money to go with her,And Ive had a quarrel with him; Broke, broke, broke, And I owe a petition fee, But the pleasant sight of a plunk once gone Will never come back to me. —J.
