A Toast to all the Girls was dedicated to the "J" Hop Girls, U. of M. '09. It is a dashing affair in ABBACCDD form with an 8-bar introduction, a 4-bar interlude between the B- and A-sections and a 12-bar interlude preceding each of the D-strains whereby the A- and BCD-strains are in the major keys of G and C respectively. Lyrics are provided for the C-strain as follows:
Here's a toast to all the girls, you think it's only wine.
But it's the heart of mine that's in the cup that I raise to you.
And drink this toast to the girls, girls, girls.
A Toast to all the Girls was published by The Burton Fischer Co., Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA.
A tempo of 100 crotchets/min. is suggested.
