GO AND DIE. Copyright, 1896, by Lyon & Healy. By W. H. McDonough. 
There are troubles that come to all people the same, There's only one way out of that; There are sorrows and trials that weary the frame, There's only one way out of that; There are times when one wants to be strictly alone, When from care and from anguish he ever may roam, When he longs for a glimpse of his heavenly home. There's only one way out of that-
Chorus. Go and die, go and die: When they've planted you there, You are free from all care. Go and die, go and die; That's the only one way out of that. 
When your wife's mother comes to stay with you a while, There's only one way out of that; And she tries to run things in her own little style, There's only one way out of that; When she makes you stand 'round, wipes her feet on your hair, Bathes )our face in the door-mat, combs your teeth with a chair, Sells your clothes to the rug man, then gets mad if you swear; There's only one way out of that-
Chorus. Go and die, go and die; When you re wearing your wings You won't notice these things. Go and die, go and die; That's the only one way out of that. 
When the cold weather comes and you lay in your coal, There's only one way out of that; And the gas man and plumber they harrow your soul, There's only one way out of that; You long for a place where they don't shovel snow, To a more tropic climate you'd much rather go, Where you won't need a flowing white robe, don't ye know; There's only one way out of that-
Chorus. Go and die. go and die; Where your spirit then roves You won't need hard-coal stoves. Go and die, go and die; That's the only one way out of that. 
When the girl with the big hat obscures your whole view, There's only one way out of that; And the stage and the people are out of sight, too, There's only one way out of that: You can't tell her "Take it off," 'twould get up a spat; You cannot say----, you're too nice to do that. Don't sit down on the girl, just sit down on the hat; That's the only one way out of that 
Chorus. Go and die, go and die; Amid heavenly bliss There is nothing like this. Go and die, go and die; That's the only one way out of that. 
When the times are so hard you can't borrow a cent, There's only one way out of that; And you have to keep bustling to pay your room-rent, There's only fine way out of that. It's no use to sit down with a sigh or a sob, If a train you can't wreck or a bank you can't rob, There is always one chance- make your wife get a job; That's the only one way out of that. 
Chorus. Go and die, go and die: When you're under the sod You're from under the rod. Go and die, go And die; That's the only one nay out of that.
