Yankee Doodle Boy
help with history hw?
umm… what are teo groups of people that would beneit if nebraska adopted prohibition, and how. (i have to use reasons and people from the poem)
The Saloons’ “Waterloo”
Tune: Yankee Doodle
Saloons have been by Lincoln tried . . .
And drinking has been easy.
And many of our men and boys
Occasionally are boozy.
Chorus
Lincoln now is going dry
Yankee doodle dandy,
Saloons have met their “Waterloo”
Strong drink no more is handy.
We will no longer give consent
Our sons are far too precious,
We now unite saloons to rout
And ask the Lord to help us.
Chorus
Let all now join the Civic League
And help to clean up Lincoln
And if we turn these leeches out
Some poor folks will have plenty.
Chorus
Our buildings would soon fill again
And business go a humming,
When people spend their money right
And quit their foolish bumming.
Chorus
According to both the song and the WCTU (Women’s Christian Temperance Union), the poor would generally benefit since money would no longer be wasted on alcohol. Families would benefit as well, because fathers and sons would work hard instead of wasting their time in saloons.
