Subject: Lyr Add: PLAYMATE
PLAYMATE

Oh Playmate, come out and play with me,
And bring your dollies three,
Climb up my apple tree.
Look in my rain barrel,
Slide down my cellar door,
And we'll be jolly friends,
For ever more.

Now it was a rainy day,
So she couldn't come out to play,
With tearful eyes, she breathed a sigh
As if she seemed to say.

I'm sorry Playmate,
I cannot play with you,
My dollie has the flu,
Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo.
Can't look in rain barrel,
Or slide down cellar door.
But we'll be jolly friends
For ever more.

This is the version my aunt use to sing to us.

Blessings
