Mary’s Little Lamb Up=to=Date ftif' 2/ift f ‘t yf/ffl' ( ej) Jr . 0* ft ^ Mary had a little lamb, Whose fleece w a s white as snow. And everywhere that Mary went The lamb was sure to go- It followed her to Chamberlin's, To see the wondrous sight. The toys and dolls and pretty things That make the Christmas bright. The lion roared, the big bear growled And hugged the lamb—it died. Poor Mary cried, a little bit, Until a doll she spied. Now dolly goes to school with her, And teacher does not scold, Put smiles the sweetest, kindest smile And tells of dolls of old. No little lamb to play with now, And Mary does not care, But says she thinks *twas very mean / v Of that old grizzly bear. Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose Co.
