Wunst I looked our pepper-box lid / An' cut little pie-dough biscuits, I did, / And cooked 'em on our stove one day / When our hired girl she said I may.
_Honey's_ the goodest thing -- Oo-_ooh_!
And blackberry-pies is goodest, too!
But wite hot biscuits, ist soakin'-wet / Wiv tree-mullasus, is goodest yet!
Miss Maimie she's my Ma's friend, -- an' / She's purtiest girl in all the lan'! -- / An' sweetest smile an' voice an' face -- / An' eyes ist looks like p'serves tas'e'!
I _ruther_ go to the Circus-show; / But, 'cause my _parunts_ told me so, / I ruther go to the Sund'y School, / 'Cause there I learn the goldun rule.
Say, Pa, -- what _is_ the goldun rule / 'At's allus at the Sund'y School?
