1932 The Green Cocktail Book by Jimmy

Here's to the girl I love— I wish that she were nigh; Ifdrinking beer would bring her here, I'd drink the damn place dry. Here's to the bachelor; you can always tell him because he has no buttons on his shirt. A married man has no shirt! Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and you weep alone; For this grand old earth must borrow its mirth, It has troubles enough of its own. Here's to the wings oflove— May they never moult a feather. Till my big boots and your little shoes Are under the bed together. Here's to the club girl, Here's to the tub girl. Here's to the lags who looks you through; Here's to the mannish girl. Here's to the clannish girl— Drink to'em standing—the petticoat crew!
