Mary's Lamb: Dedicated to the Lambs Club
V. Herbert
Mary had a little lamb,
So famous it did grow
That everywhere the lambkin went,
That girl was sure to go.
But when it gamboled in its glee
She never had a sight,
So Mary said the girls must see --
That's why we're here tonight
Mary, Mary, eyes of black or blue,
Brownish eyes that lovers prize --
Eyes of hazel hue --
Though each little fairy
Be Sophie, Kate, or Belle,
We'll bunch them up as Mary -- and --
The Lambs will wish them well.
Sound the trumpet, beat the drum,
Electrify the Scene,
Tinkle with a timely touch
The tuneful tambourine.
We are out for merriment,
With thoughts of pleasing you,
But I'll mention -- on the side --
We're out for Mary too.
Mary, Mary, eyes of black or blue,
Brownish eyes that lovers prize --
Eyes of hazel hue --
Though each little fairy
Be Sophie, Kate, or Belle,
We'll bunch them up as Mary -- and --
The Lambs will wish them well.
