Please Come and Play in the My Yard

Please Come and Play in the My Yard.
89-4

Two little girls, with two little curia, were living
side by side:
Ons little mald, cach morning played, in a yard so
grand and wide.
But in the next house, na poor as a mouse, s chlid
gazed longitiyly.
“Till one summer’s day, she heard a volce pay,
“Please come and play with me.”

Chorus
Redland Madden,
“Please come and play in my yard.. I’m all alone,
you see.
Once I was poor like you are, then mamma loved
but me,
Now she is always busy out in society;
Piense come and play in my yard, nobody cares
for me.”
Soon came a change, Dame Fortune grew strange,
and from the rich child strayed:
One year had passed, weaith came at last to cheer
the poor young maid.
poor little mouse now lived in the house the rich
child used to own.
And whispers each day to her friend o’er the way.
“Don’t leave me all alone.”
