Oh! Kitty dear,
See here, see here,
Some one a Valentine has sent
For "Kitty Lee";
That's you or me—
How can we tell which one is meant?
I think 'tis me;
For, don't you see,
By dear young Tommy Dodd 'tis written;
If 'twas for you,
'Tis surely true,
It would have come from Tommy's kitten.
(And Pussy said, "Me-you!")
Here sits a maiden all forlorn,
Without her Valentine;
She's waited there since early morn—
The post brought ne'er a line.
Some love short boys,
Some love tall;
This little maiden
Loves them all.
Whoever passes,
Rain or shine,
She thinks 'tis sure
Her Valentine.
