Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 04 Aug 2002

Now little Sammy Simpson
used to tearfully confess
he couldn't get a sweetheart,
'cause he lithp'd when he said: "yeth."
Till one night at a fancy ball
he met Miss Susie Smith,
and soon he whispere'd:
"Will you danth the Lantherth with me, mith?"
Said she: "Moth thertainly!"
Said Sam: "You're mocking me!"
Said she: "I'm not! I lithp mythelf!"
Then Sam said tenderly....

Thuthie! Thuthie!
Be my little thweetheart, Thuthie!
You lithp, and I lithp,
But your lithp is worth than my lithp!
Thuthie! Thuthie!
I'll pay the theven and thix for you,
and the parthon will whithper:
"Mithter Thammy Thimpthon lithpth,
and Mithith Thuthie Thimpthon lithpth too."

Thuthie! Thuthie!
Be my little thweetheart, Thuthie!
You lithp, and I lithp,
But your lithp is worth than my lithp!
Thuthie! Thuthie!
I'll pay the theven and thix for you,
and the parthon will whithper:
"Mithter Thammy Thimpthon lithpth,
and Mithith Thuthie Thimpthon lithpth too!"

Said she: "Ith very thudden!
I mutht think it over, pleathe!"
But Sammy pleaded: "Thue, they 'yeth'
and thet my mind at eathe!"
Said she: "I can't thay 'yeth'
becauthe I cannot thound the eth."
Said Sam: "Well, never mind the 'eth'
ath long ath you thay 'yeth'.
Oh, pleathe thay yeth, Mith Thmith,
and theal it with a kith,
and we'll thpend yearth and yearth
and yearth of happineth and blith."

Thuthie! Thuthie!
Be my little thweetheart, Thuthie!
You lithp, and I lithp,
But your lithp is worth than my lithp!
Thuthie! Thuthie!
I'll pay the theven and thix for you,
and the parthon will whithper:
"Mithter Thammy Thimpthon lithpth,
and Mithith Thuthie Thimpthon lithpth too."

Thuthie! Thuthie!
Be my little thweetheart, Thuthie!
You lithp, and I lithp,
But your lithp is worth than my lithp!
Thuthie! Thuthie!
I'll pay the theven and thix for you,
and the parthon will whithper:
"Mithter Thammy Thimpthon lithpth,
and Mithith Thuthie Thimpthon lithpth too!"

They knelt in church one Sunday,
Susie said it hurt her kneeth.
The parson said: "Will you take Sam?"
and Susie said: "Yeth, pleathe."
The parson whispered: "Say I will,"
and Sue, the saucy cat, said:
"Yeth, I'd rather thay 'I Will'
'cauthe thereth no 'eth' in that!"
They've not been married long,
but oh, they're going strong!
For Thue and Tham and
Theven little lithperth thing thith thong.

Thuthie! Thuthie!
Be my little thweetheart, Thuthie!
You lithp, and I lithp,
But your lithp is worth than my lithp!
Thuthie! Thuthie!
I'll pay the theven and thix for you,
and the parthon will whithper:
"Mithter Thammy Thimpthon lithpth,
and Mithith Thuthie Thimpthon lithpth too."

Thuthie! Thuthie!
Be my little thweetheart, Thuthie!
You lithp, and I lithp,
But your lithp is worth than my lithp!
Thuthie! Thuthie!
I'll pay the theven and thix for you,
and the parthon will whithper:
"Mithter Thammy Thimpthon lithpth,
and Mithith Thuthie Thimpthon lithpth too!"
