MANDY'S PARTY
Mandy gave a party
The fame of which was wide, And Mandy did the cooking
For that was Mandy's pride; There were chickens, there were possums,
There was hoe cake and a boar, And Mandy says I'm coming
When I lock that kitchen door.
The smell of all that kitchen
Pervaded every room, Just like a sweet potato
In sweet potato bloom; The dancers all were merry,
The revelry galore, And Mandy says I'm coming
When I lock that kitchen door.
And Mandy in the kitchen
Was busy as the bees, Baking crispy biscuits
And shelling juicy peas; The call went round for Mandy
And went round more and more But Mandy says I'm coming
When I lock this kitchen door.
