The money kings in Cuba blew up the gunboat Maine,
But Block got awful angry and blamed it all on Spain.
He went right in the battle and there he lost his leg,
And now he's peddling shoestrings and is walking on a peg.
He shouts, "Remember Maine, Hurrah! to hell with Spain!"

-Chorus-
Oh, Mr. Block, you were born by mistake,
You take the cake, you make me ache;
Tie a rock on your block and then jump in the lake;
Kindly do that for Liberty's sake.
