Walk, Jawbone! Jinny, come alon'! Yon'er goes Sally wid de bootees on.

INDIAN FLEA
Injun flea, bit my knee;
Kaze I wouldn' drink ginger tea.
Flea bite hard, flea bite quick; Flea bite burn lak dat seed tick.
Hit dat flea, flea not dere. I'se so mad I pulls my hair.
I go wild an' fall in de creek. To wash 'im off, I'd stay a week. 12 |
