For I'll be master of the ring

by (1840–1924)

Listen in the reader

For I'll be master of the ring And keep the horses on the spring, Announce the names of those who ride, And snap the whip on every side." Another said, "I'll be a clown; I saw the way they tumble down, And how the cunning rogues contrive To always keep the fun alive."
