  God Planted the Trees 
  to Make small Benches 
  But who made little Boys 
  To Kiss little Wenches.
  -----       -----       -----       -----       
  Our Nurse she had a little Watch 
  She Swallowed it one Day 
  And now she's taking a little Gil 
  To Pass the time away. 
  -----       -----       -----       -----       
  Why don't my Mabel Love Me, 
  Why don't my Phyllis Dare, 
  Why don't my Pauline Chase me, 
  We'd make an excellent pair, 
  I cannot Marie Studholme
  She is Rich and I am Poor 
  With burdens I am laden, 
  I cannot Carrie Moore
