Subject: RE: Are there more words to Mairzy Doats?
For background, the "standard lyrics" were popular enough to be recorded in my mother's high school "autograph book" by one of her classmates sometime ca. 1924 - 1927. Apparently most of the kids of that era knew them well enough to have sung them folkishly(?).

A few other bits of "doggerel" that were apparently popular then also were in the book; but I don't know that any of the others were set to tunes.
