Talk about the land of this glorious Weat.
Where people are now rusning, their Intures to test
There is where the land is now praised to the aktes:
Bring forth your cheers for the sweet by and byes
When all the gumbo hills be transferred into nelda
Rain will fall in torrents and crops they will yield.
Corn and oats and wheat in abundance will grow.
Farewell to all trouble, farewell to all woe.

Come, come, come, and we’ll show you
What fortunes you’ll make.
Come, ne, hand come. us a few dollars,
And we will show you the corner stake.
Oh! hear the whistle blow!
See the train is coming sol
Hurry and come on ahead!
Come, come, bring along your money.
And we’ll show you a homestead,

Now, you need not mind what the old settlers may say.
For they are but trying to scare you away.
Indeed, they may tell you of dry seasons they’ve had.
And, to be sure, that all sounds very bad.
When o’er those lone prairies for water and hay
From their homes they had to go many miles away.
Ah! to our own selves we may know very well
True facts that we can’t quite afford to tell.

But come, come, and we’ll show you
What fortunes you’ll make:
Come, come, hand us a few dollars
And we’ll show you the stakes.
Oh! hear the whistle blow!
Seel the train is coming so
Hurry and we’ll come on ahead.
Come, come, be among the first.
And we’ll show you & precious (7) bomestead.
