ROLLER-SKATING RINK. Words and Music by Edward Atkins. 
'Twas on an afternoon last fall, to whirl the hours by, I strolled into a skating rink, the rollers on to try; And as I whirled around the hall, I met a maiden's glance. And at that time this miss divine my heart she did entrance. 
Chorus. She had dark hair, this angel fair, and since that time I think I was in luck the day I struck the roller-skating rink. 
We passed a pleasant evening by. and stopped a little late, But then it was the first time I had on the roller skate. With such a lovely teacher, too, and now I really think 'Twas happy day that I did stray into the skating rink.-Chorus. 
Now soon the day will come around when I can call her mine; This little dear whom I revere, all others doth outshine; And when some years we have been wed, kind friends, I really think, When we have raised some little chips, we'll start a skating rink.-Chorus.
