Taking Notes and Stealing Quotes on this song

Words by

See a poem that quotes this song

Simple Sister
Got Whooping Cough
Have to burn her toys
Take her treats
Eat her sweets
Scare off all the boys

Simple Sister
Got Whooping Cough
Have to shove her out
Wear her clothes
Steal her bows
Tell her that she's stout

Simple Sister
Got Whooping Cough
Lock her in a cell
Throw the key
Into the sea
Hope she never gets well
