"JOHNNY SHALL HAVE A NEW BONNET"
Johnny shall have a new bonnet,
And Johnny shall go to the fair,
And Johnny shall have a blue ribbon
To tie up his bonny brown hair.
And why may not I love Johnny,
And why may not Johnny love me?
And why may not I love Johnny
As well as another body?
And here's a leg for a stocking,
And here's a foot for a shoe;
And he has a kiss for his daddy,
And one for his mammy, too.
And why may not I love Johnny,
And why may not Johnny love me?
And why may not I love Johnny,
As well as another body?
