PLAYMATES
___________MUSIC – 1904 WORDS – 1940
OH, LITTLE PLAYMATE,
COME OUT AND PLAY WITH ME,
AND BRING YOUR DOLLIES THREE.
CLIMB UP MY APPLE TREE.
LOOK DOWN MY RAIN BARREL.
SLIDE DOWN MY CELLAR DOOR.
AND WE’LL BE JOLLY FRIENDS
FOR EVER MORE.
OH, SHE COULDN’T COME OUT TO PLAY.
IT WAS A RAINY DAY.
WITH TEARFUL SIGHS
SHE BREATHED A SIGH
AND I COULD HEAR HER SAY,
I’M SORRY PLAYMATE,
I CANNOT PLAY WITH YOU.
MY DOLLY HAS THE FLU,
BOO HOO HOO HOO HOO HOO.
AIN’T GOT NO RAIN BARREL.
AIN’T GOT NO CELLAR DOOR.
BUT WE’LL BE JOLLY FRIENDS
FOR EVER MORE.
