Kneel On This Carpet

________________________________________________
Title:     Kneel On This Carpet
Author: Thomas W. Talley [More Titles by Talley]

Jes choose yō' Eas'; jes choose yō' Wes'.
Now choose de one you loves de bes'.
If she hain't here to take 'er part
Choose some one else wid all yō' heart.

Down on dis chyarpet you mus' kneel,
Shore as de grass grows in de fiel'.
Salute yō' Bride, an' kiss her sweet,
An' den rise up upon yō' feet.






[The end]
