You stop that foolishness at once, or mamma have to whip!” The youngster laughed a spell, Then loudly he did yell: I’ CHORUS “Say, who are you to dictate To me, I’d like to know? I need excitement badly, And things are very slow. ' Don’t think that I’m a bonehead, Don’t think that I’m a chump, Ah, here comes dear old grandma! Let’s see if she can jump!” VERSE 2. The mother saw just how things were and had no more to say; She merely si&hed next morning when he shot her ear away. .T A doctor came to patch her up, and Willie, darling kid, Pumped half a dozen buckshot thru his go-to-meet ing lid.
