It's my sisser tatin' a nap.

"She's only a piece of a day old now,

But she looks like any fing;

Wight out of her great eyes all boo,

An', ganpa, she can sing:

"There, don't you hear her, naughty dirl?

She skuled dat way—because

I feeled her foots, to see if 'em gowed

Like mine or pussy's claws.

"Sissers ain't nice to sing dat way,
