Grandpa's Head Cums Frew His Hair
(Written for Margaret Ruston, Evansville, Ind., and Mr. Wm. Warren Newburg, Ind.)
When Margaret was a youngster scarcely two years old,
At climbing chairs and tables this lass was very bold,
And one day when her grandpa was seated in his chair
She climbed upon the rounded rungs as if they were a stair,
And looking at her Grandpa's head, which fast was growing bald,
She cried out, "Dearest Grandpa, one time you must hab failed,
Or maybe you've been naughty and dot an awful scare,
Which taused de top ob yu's round head to tum right frew de hair."
