Dolly, my darling, is dreadfully sick;
Oh, dear! what shall I do?
Despatch to the doctor a telephone quick
To bring her a remedy new.
Hush! that is the doctor's tap! tap! tap!
Don't make such a terrible noise--
Don't you see how the darling lies still on my lap,
And never looks up at you boys!
Come, doctor, and tell me now just what you think
Would be best for my darling so sweet.
'Give dolly a bucket of water to drink,
In a bowl of hot gruel put her feet.'
