THE BATTALION
<’VE PLAYED MY LUCK WHEN
I’VE FOUND IT
(With Appologiss to Kipling)
1.
I’ve played my luck when I’ve found
it;
I’ve rolled the old boner in my time.
I’ve shot with some mig ty good
gamblers.
An’ four o’ the lot was prime.
One was a half-stewed inventor,
One was a dago from Rome,
An’ then there war one, was a min
ister’s son.
An’ one was a ha’f-wit at home.
O
Now, I arn’t no hand with the bone
cubes.
For taken’ ’em all along,
You never can tell ’til you’ve set ’em,
An’ then you are like to be wrong.
There’ll be times when you’re sure
you will natu’al,
There’ll be times wr.en you’ll think
you will win.
But the things that you’ll learn when
you lose your last coin,
Will help you a lot in the end.
3.
I was rolling ’em in Waco,
Shy as a girl to begin.
Andy Tim Sabo he taught me,
An’ Andy was clever as sin.
Older than me, but my first im,
More like a brother Uris, Tim,
For, he showed me the way to lose
my month’s pay,
And I learned how to gamble from
him.
4.
Then I went west to Colorado,
Where I ran across Tony Banan,
He was a dago fruit peddler.
But he could set the old bones in a
can.
Funny, and dirty, and faithfifU.
His eyes they was terrible dim.
I quit playin’ Dutch, ’cause he broke
too much,
But I learned about gambling from
him.
7.
Yes, there’s times when a fellow is
lucky,
An’ again there is times when he’ll
lose;
So he goes to the heights of the win
ner,
Or despair, (as fortune may choose),
An’ the kale he may win, he will blow
it all in,
An’ what he has left he will lose.
8.
An’ the end of it all is desparin’,
An’ learnin’ that nothing is free,
So be warned by my lot, (which I
know you will not),
An’ learn about gamblin’ from me.

Say, stranger, who’s the man I see,
Who didn’t get up at Reveille ?
He seemed quite gay
As he passed our way.
By Jove, in cits, he’s dressed!
Say, there’s another, stranger, look!
Yonder he goes with a Spanish
book.
He’s standing still,
While the others drill
Yet he doesn’t seem depressed.
He seems to say with a look of glee,
“Squads east” old top, wasn't
meant for me.
From Milner Hall ? !!
I see it all.
The homestead of the blest,
Why look! from Milner Hall they
pour,
