THE CIRCUS by RAY CLARKE ROSE

First Line: IN MY PURSE THERE WAS GOLD
Last Line: BUT GRACE WENT TO THE CIRCUS.
Subject(s): CIRCUS; MONEY; SPENDTHRIFTS; WOMEN;

In my purse there was gold,
But Grace went to the circus.
Till the tickets were sold
In my purse there was gold.
Ah, 't is sad to behold
How our dear sisters work us!
In my purse there was gold,
But Grace went to the circus.
