Let's Go Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDEEFFGGHHIJB'There isn't any business ' wailed the sad and gloomy man | A |
'I haven't made a dollar since the armistice began ' | B |
But I couldn't help reflecting as I heard his story through | C |
That the hopeful cheerful hustler seems to have a lot to do | C |
I've been in business places where the air was thick with gloom | D |
And the men were sad and solemn like the mourners at a tomb | D |
And there wasn't any business or an order coming in | E |
And what's more there never will be till those fellows start to grin | E |
'There isn't any business' aren't you weary of the cry | F |
Men have caught the gloomy habit and they sit around and sigh | F |
But the hustler I have noticed who has quit his easy chair | G |
And is confidently working seems to gather in his share | G |
It is time to get the business it is time to hustle out | H |
With a man's faith in the future much too long we've scattered doubt | H |
Much too long we've sobbed and whimpered much too long we've talked of woe | I |
Now it's time for optimism and the hopeful phrase | J |
'Let's go ' | B |
