 The Worsted Man MEN AND HEARTS. BALLAD (Music: &quot;Time Was When Love and I Were Well Acquainted,&quot; from &quot;The Sorcerer &quot;) Time was when men and hearts were found together; Time was when dainty Cupid found a nest, To shelter him from storm and wintry weather, Within the stronghold of some manly breast. But now, alas! poor Dan sad little laddy Finds, stead of hearts to shelter him galore, A golf club where he has to act as caddy, And pace the wind-swept golf-links keeping score! No longer do the lads pursue the lasses, But chase by night and day some pewter mug. 55
