Children Song -- Miss Lulu

Miss Lulu had a baby
She named him Tiny Tim,
She put him in the bath tub,
To see if he could swim.

He drank up all the water,
He ate up all the soap,
Miss Lulu called the doctor
And the doctor called the nurse,
And the nurse called the lady with the alligator purse.

He didn't want the doctor
He didn't want the nurse
He didn't want the lady with the alligator purse.
