SICH A NICE MAN TOO!, SELECTION, by ALBERT CHEVALIER First Line: There's parties ad yer meets about Last Line: With a gentleman by birth and education! Subject(s): Chevalier, Albert (1861-1923); Gentlemen | |||
There's parties ad yer meets about Wot wins yer 'eart instanter; They give the rest a goodish start And beats 'em in a canter. There's one I know as licks 'em all, And that's my fellow-lodger, He's up to ev'ry knowin' fake, A fair old artful dodger. CHORUS Sich a nice man too! Sich a very nice man, Not a bit stuck up, no beastly affectation, One who somehow makes you feel That you really have to deal With a gentleman by birth and education! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CHARADE: 15 by FRANCES RIDLEY HAVERGAL LIBERALITY OF SENTIMENT: AND SO HOME by CORNELIUS WHUR "TO A GENTLEMAN, WHO DESIRED PROPER MATERIALS FOR A MONODY" by ANONYMOUS HARRISON STREET COURT by CARL SANDBURG THE SAND-MAN by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR NIGHT AND DAY by SIDNEY LANIER THE DAYS GONE BY by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY LADY CLARA VERE DE VERE by ALFRED TENNYSON |
