- "After the Ball :", American popular song written in the 1890s by Charles K. Harris for the musical comedy A Trip to Chinatown. A waltz. it became one of the most popular songs of its era. Lyrics are as follows:
A little maiden climbed an old man's knee Begged for a story - "Do, uncle, please!" Why are you single; why live alone? Have you no babies; have you no home?" "I had a sweetheart, years, years ago; Where she is now, pet, you will soon know. List to the story, I'll tell it all, I believed her faithless, after the ball."
After the ball is over, After the break of morn - After the dancers' leaving; After the stars are gone; Many a heart is aching, If you could read them all; Many the hopes that have vanished After the ball.
