Around the corner i have a friend
In this great oity that has no end,
Yet days go by and weeks rush on
And before T know It ;a year is gone;
For lire is a swift and terrible;nace,
And T clever see my old frie'nid's face.
He imows T like him just as well
As in the days when T rang Iris bell
And he rang mine, we were younger
then,
And now we are L•nsy, tired men;
Tired of playing a. foolha)i game,
Tired of trying te' hake a name,
To -morrow, T say, I will call on Jim,
.rust to show that I'm thinking of

But to -morrow cornea and tt-ntorrow

And the dtstance between us grows

Around the corner, yet nodes away.
Here's a. telegram sarin„ Jim died

And thet's what we get and deserve
