About this Item
Eleven verses and a chorus, in part: "As the Buff: was going up Walnut Street, The Philly Engine they chanced to meet, Says they my boys give us no talk, For the Phil'a is the 'cock of the walk.'" . The Washy, Philly, and Franklin Hose, The Buff: can whip if they dare oppose; For those three companies need not talk, For the Buffalo is the 'cock of the walk.'" Typographic ornamental border. 9.5" x 4.75". Slight edge chipping, no text loss. Sealed in archival mylar. [Wolf, American Song Sheets, 218.] This song refers to the Philadelphia fire-company riots of the 19th century, which led the City Council to eliminate the volunteer fire-company system.
