Toothless Ruth
You can have your Toothless Ruth
Or Jeannette the sweet Coquette
But you can't have Crazy Harold
What part don't you get?
They gotta rhyme like Contrary Mary
Or Peter with the Metre long nose
There's famous Georgie Porgie
And of course there's Black Hose Rose
There's more, there's Moody Judy
Or nasty old Cranky Frank
There's Earl who's very Squirrel like
And how about Hank the Yank
Ever heard of Frail Gail
Or Valerie on the Gallery
What about Kate by the Garden Gate
There's Calorie counting Mallory
There's the sweetheart Shelley Belly
And silly old Jack the Quack
Scott who sails a great big Yacht
And Barack who's got the Knack
I could go on for quite a while
There's Bob who's known as Rob
But Gord is starting to get really Bored
So I'll end this tale with a sob!
