Pass The Contribution Box 1915 "The Girl Of Tomorrow"

Hurry, hurry,
there's a jubilee,
don't sit still
get the thrill
Barnum told me
he was wise, you see,
"Just set folks talking,"
he said to me.

Just pass the contribution box,
don't mind the public's little knocks,
just lend them to the pearly gates
where old St. Peter always waits to tell you
Just what new sinner you're to get,
just how to grab him by the neck
and lead them straight to glory
with a smile.

Just pass the contribution box,
don't mind the public's little knocks,
just lend them to the pearly gates
where old St. Peter always waits to tell you
Just what new sinner you're to get,
just how to grab him by the neck
and lead them straight to glory
with a smile.

Come on! Come on!
Come and stand up right, over here;
Now make clear!
'Fess up, 'fess up!
Where were you last night,
and I will save you,
though you're a sight!

Just pass the contribution box,
don't mind the public's little knocks,
just lend them to the pearly gates
where old St. Peter always waits to tell you
Just what new sinner you're to get,
just how to grab him by the neck
and lead them straight to glory
with a smile.

Just pass the contribution box,
don't mind the public's little knocks,
just lend them to the pearly gates
where old St. Peter always waits to tell you
Just what new sinner you're to get,
just how to grab him by the neck
and lead them straight to glory
with a smile.
