Ah, ha! ah, ha! catch me, if you can!
You can't catch me, I'm a gingerbread man.
Girl. I have my roller skates on. Perhaps I can catch him!
Little Old Woman. I'm sure you can, my child.
Girl. I'll try. Look out, Mr. Gingerbread Man!
Gingerbread Man.
Ah, ha! ah, ha! catch me, if you can!
You can't catch me, I'm a gingerbread man!
Little Old Woman. There he goes, and none of them can catch him. Now he is near some farmers. I'll call on them to help me. Farmer, farmer, will you please help me catch the gingerbread man? There he goes over your wheat field.
Farmer. Yes, indeed, we'll help you. Here, you gingerbread man, keep out of my wheat field! Come, men; run after him and catch him.
Men. We'll catch him before he gets to the fence.
