Molly Molyneux

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. July 2000.

She was fair,
golden hair,

And she wore a short skirt,
And a peek~a~boo shirt,
And a baby stare;

On the beach,
such a peach!

Boys all said, "She's all right,
Why she's quite out of sight,
And she's out of reach!"

Molly Molyneux look'd so shy,
Picture hat and a downcast eye,

She was a lady, Oh, My!
Innocent maidie! Oh, Fie!

Molly Molyneux look'd as though
She were simple, and didn't know
Just what was what!

But oh, Gee!
what a lot little Molly knew.

But oh, Gee!

When a child, Moll was wild;
With her brother one day
She from school stayed away,

But the teacher smiled,
For she knew what to do.
Such a whipping they got!

When they met, Jack said:
"What did she do to you?"

Molly Molyneux, all in tears,
Said, "That teacher she boxed my ears,

Right in the school there. Oh, Jack!
I looked a fool there. Oh, whack!

Where did you get the cane?" said she;
Jack replied, "in the libraree!"

And just by his frown
When he tried to sit down,
Little Molly knew!

One fine day, Reuben Jay,
With a loud suit of check,

And a short runner beck,
Walked along Broadway.

Eyes of blue pierced him through;
"Who might you be?" he cried,

And the maiden replied,
"Molly Molyneux"

Molly Molyneux stopped to say,
"Please, kind sir, I have lost my way!"

Molly was crying. Oh, Hush!
Sobbing and sighing: Oh, tush!

He spoke comforting words, and pressed,
Molly's head to his manly vest,

But just what became
of his gold watch and chain,
Only Molly knew!
