Subject: Lyr Add: LITTLE PUSSY WILLOW (Loomis, Johnstone)
From First Year Music by Hollis Dann (New York: American Book Company, 1914), page 38, where it appears with an arrangement for piano and one voice:


LITTLE PUSSY WILLOW
Words, Harvey Worthington Loomis. Music, Arthur Edward Johnstone.

1. Windy March is blowing with all his might.
Brooks are overflowing with foam all white.
Tho' it's cold as winter, blowy, snowy,
Little pussy willow came to town last night.

2. Pussy wore her mittens of light gray fur.
Downy as a kitten's they surely were.
Such a cunning midget, ruffy, fluffy,
Little pussy willow, won't you please to purr?
