LILLIE'S PUSSY
I have dot a little pussy,
An' she's all my own—to teep!
But she is so drefful fussy
When we're playin' hide'n seek!
I will hide w-a-y in the tloset,
An' will squeam, wight loud, "All out!"
An' when pussy hears me doesit,
She begins to wun about.
An' she's all my own—to teep!
But she is so drefful fussy
When we're playin' hide'n seek!
I will hide w-a-y in the tloset,
An' will squeam, wight loud, "All out!"
An' when pussy hears me doesit,
She begins to wun about.
She tan ony say "me-ow,"
But I know des what her finks—
Her finks, "ah, I've found oo now,"
An' den, away she slinks!
Den I has to do an' fin' her—
On the 'tairway; in the hall,—
But I wis' her wouldn't tinder
Always wun out, when I tall!
But I know des what her finks—
Her finks, "ah, I've found oo now,"
An' den, away she slinks!
Den I has to do an' fin' her—
On the 'tairway; in the hall,—
But I wis' her wouldn't tinder
Always wun out, when I tall!
Seems to me I'm always "it,"—
The one what has to shut her eyes;
An' I don't wike that one bit,
For my pussy never tries
"All out!" like her ought to do,
An' I always have to dess
'Bout the time her wants me to—
That ain't wight, now, I mus' 'fess!
The one what has to shut her eyes;
An' I don't wike that one bit,
For my pussy never tries
"All out!" like her ought to do,
An' I always have to dess
'Bout the time her wants me to—
That ain't wight, now, I mus' 'fess!
But den it's no fun to hunt her—
I wis' 'at I tould teach her how!
Will her ever learn, I wonder,
To say "all out!" an' not "me-ow!"'
She is such a funny kitty,
Not to tell me where she be;—
An' I fink it's such a pity
Pussies tannot play like we!
I wis' 'at I tould teach her how!
Will her ever learn, I wonder,
To say "all out!" an' not "me-ow!"'
She is such a funny kitty,
Not to tell me where she be;—
An' I fink it's such a pity
Pussies tannot play like we!
