Granny's come to our house, And ho! my lawzy-daisy! All the childern round the place Is ist a-runnin' crazy! Fetched a cake fer little Jake, And fetched a pie fer Nanny, And fetched a pear fer all the pack That runs to kiss their Granny!
Lucy Ellen's in her lap, And Wade and Silas Walker Both's a-ridin' on her foot, And 'Pollos on the rocker; And Marthy's twins, from Aunt Marinn's, And little Orphant Annie, All's a-eatin' gingerbread And giggle-un at Granny!
Tells us all the fairy tales Ever thought er wundered -- And 'bundance o' other stories -- Bet she knows a hunderd! -- Bob's the one fer "Whittington," And "Golden Locks" fer Fanny! Hear 'em laugh and clap their hands, Listenin' at Granny!
"Jack the Giant-Killer" 's good; And "Bean-Stalk" 's another! -- So's the one of "Cinderell'" And her old godmother; -- That-un's best of all the rest -- Bestest one of any, -- Where the mices scampers home Like we runs to Granny!
