The Great Baby Show
(air Villikens and his Dinah)
On the Seventeenth day of this month you must know
Took place in our city the great baby show
They shut up the factories and let out the schools
For the Seventeenth day was the day of all fools
Sing tural i lural +c.
They made a procession of wagons and boats
Of racoons and oxen (they all have their votes)
Sedge hammers, triangles and carpenters tools
One thousand and eight hundred horses and mules
Sing tural i lural +c.
They had gemmen ob color to join in the games
And jokers and clowns of all ages and names
They had pop guns and tin pans and all kinds of toys
And a very fine party all made up of boys
Sing tural i lural +c.
They had young men on horse back so nice and so gay
Aged Seventeen years on this seventeenth day
And the ladies all thought they were bold cavaliers
These bright looking lads aged seventeen years
Sing tural i lural +c.
