I AM A PRETTY LITTLE DUTCH GIRL
AS PRETTY AS PRETTY CAN BE,
AND ALL THE BOYS AROUND MY HOUSE
ARE CRAZY OVER ME.

HE CAME FROM ALABAMO
WITH PICKLES ON HIS TOES
AND A CHERRY ON HIS NOSE
EE-I EE-I-O.
MY BOYFRIEND GAVE ME PEACHES;
MY BOYFRIEND GAVE ME PEARS;
MY BOYFRIEND GAVE ME FIFTY-CENTS,
AND KICKED ME DOWN THE STAIRS.
I GAVE HIM BACK HIS PEACHES;
