THE GRASS WILL
GROW AGAIN.

Thi peplar song can always be had at poet's Box.

182 overgate, Dundee.

Written and sung by Harry Linn.

Let your motto ne'er be strow,
For singhing always gives me pain,
Clouds and steams will rise to-morrow.
And the grass will grow again.
We meet some men who're still comlaining.
Of the past and present day;
When I hear thoes men a-ailing,
Thise to them I always say?

CHORUS.

Never, boys, give way to sorrow,.
Sighing it is all    in vain
For the sun may shine tn-morrow,
And the grass will grow again.

We meet some people always ailing
Some from care are never free,
While some with pleasure still are sailing
Through the world so gay and free;
Some pepole boast about there pleasure,
Others with sorrow are always sad;
Those are men I like to cher up,
And I say, to make them glad--

Chorus.

Try a game yes, three timesover,
A motto here, I kindly say.
Though this morn the clouds may cover.
It may prove the brightest day;
The wettest night has come to sunshine,
Clouds will come and clouds will go;
Bear this well   it is my my,motto,
And I say, to make them glad?

Chorus.
