Piking The Pike 1904

See! The electric moon is flaring,
high and far and wide,
never mind the old moon's staring
at us side by side,
Down among the white pavilions
come and take a hike,
come and join the merry millions
as they Pike the Pike,

If you are brave
come Pike the Pike tonight
some of it is dark,
and some of it's very light.
Any girl of any nation
anything you like,
come and get an education
while you "Pike the Pike."

Dark within a smoky portal
on the pillared Pike
sits a little Oriental fortune telling tyke,
fortunes told for half a dollar
in a wreath of smoke,
I predict you'll make your fortune
if you don't go broke,

If you are brave
come Pike the Pike tonight
some of it is dark,
and some of it's very light.
Any girl of any nation
anything you like,
come and get an education
while you "Pike the Pike."

On the Pike I met a maiden
from the country she
I was flush and she was twenty
and she took to me.
in a dark secluded corner
we began to this....
really's not for publication
this nor this nor this....

If you are brave
come Pike the Pike tonight
some of it is dark,
and some of it's very light.
Any girl of any nation
anything you like,
come and get an education
while you "Pike the Pike."
