	WE WOULD NOT THINK OF YOU IN TEARS. Come dry your eyes, dear girls ; of you We would not think in tears ; For you're with us whate'er we do, And, in smiles, we'd see our dears ; When, girls, your healths we fondly drink, Far from you, leagues away, Come, let us but of gay looks think, Of smiles we leave to-day. A fig for care ! for you we work ; Our cash, for you, we earn ; They're lubbers who their duty shirk ; We go but to return ; From laughing looks, not tearful eyes, We'd part, dear hearts, to-day, From faces that in smiles shall rise In lone hours far away.
