Granny

1     Granny's come to our house,
2       And ho! my lawzy-daisy!
3     All the childern round the place
4       Is ist a-runnin' crazy!
5     Fetched a cake fer little Jake,
6       And fetched a pie fer Nanny,
7     And fetched a pear fer all the pack
8       That runs to kiss their Granny!

9     Lucy Ellen's in her lap,
10     And Wade and Silas Walker
11   Both's a-ridin' on her foot,
12     And 'Pollos on the rocker;
13   And Marthy's twins, from Aunt Marinn's,
14     And little Orphant Annie,
15   All's a-eatin' gingerbread
16     And giggle-un at Granny!

17   Tells us all the fairy tales
18     Ever thought er wundered --
19   And 'bundance o' other stories --
20     Bet she knows a hunderd! --
21   Bob's the one fer "Whittington,"
22     And "Golden Locks" fer Fanny!
23   Hear 'em laugh and clap their hands,
24     Listenin' at Granny!

25   "Jack the Giant-Killer" 's good;
26     And "Bean-Stalk" 's another! --
27   So's the one of "Cinderell'"
28     And her old godmother; --
29   That-un's best of all the rest --
30     Bestest one of any, --
31   Where the mices scampers home
32     Like we runs to Granny!

33   Granny's come to our house,
34     Ho! my lawzy-daisy!
35   All the childern round the place
36     Is ist a-runnin' crazy!
37   Fetched a cake fer little Jake,
38     And fetched a pie fer Nanny,
39   And fetched a pear fer all the pack
40     That runs to kiss their Granny!
