OUT DOOR AND IN.
Five little chickens,
Wasn't it fun,
When their mother called them,
To see them all run?
Out in the garden path
She scratched up a bug!
Wasn't it fun,
When their mother called them,
To see them all run?
Out in the garden path
She scratched up a bug!
Fluffy-down caught it first
And gave a big tug,
Yellow-back and Top-knot
Each seized a wing;
Two ran with all their might
But never found a thing.
And gave a big tug,
Yellow-back and Top-knot
Each seized a wing;
Two ran with all their might
But never found a thing.
September 11th, 1881.
