Here are the lyrics in Jones' original (I assume the song doesn't go farther back than that):

THEY ALWAYS PICK ON ME

As sung by Ada Jones

When I was born my pa and ma, they looked at me and said, Oh, pshaw!
The doctor said, it's a girl, I think, and Pa went out and got a drink,   
Then Ma said I looked just like Pa, and Pa said I took after Ma,
Aunt Jane said I looked like a quince, and I've been a stepchild ever since,   

Cho:
They always, always pick on me, they never, never let me be,   
I'm so very lonesome, awf'ly sad, it's a long time since I've been glad,
But I know what I'll do by and by, I'll eat some worms and then I'll die,   
An' when I'm gone, you wait and see, they'll all be sorry that they picked on   me.

One morning just at four o'clock, somebody tried to pick our lock,   
I knew it was Papa sure as sin, so I opened the door and let him in,   
My Ma said, What time is it, Pa?   It's twelve o'clock, my Pa told Ma,
Just then, the cuckoo cuckooed four, and Pa made me cuckoo twelve times more,

Cho: (note variation in third line)
They always, always pick on me, they never, never let me be,   
I'm so very lonesome, awf'ly sad, it's a long time since I've been glad,
But I know what I'll do, it's no joke, I'll eat a frog and then I'll choke,
And when I'm gone, you wait and see, they'll all be sorry that they picked on me.
