' Wanted-twelve pairs of stockings,
Come wee folks, one and all
Hunt up your knitting-needies,
And beg a bright, soft bSf
Ofyarn from dear grandmother;
Perhaps she'll show you how
To knit the tiny stockings,
Well need them quite soon, now.
For Blackey, the sky pullet,
Has Matched dozen chicks
Ofcourse they're all barefooted,
So we must try and fix
Each one pair Of stockings
Before the snowhakes fly,
Else they're so young and tender,
They might catch cold and die.
At best, she's very foolish
The mother-hen I mean
She's not one bit Of forethought,
But proud as any queen:
Goes clucking with her chickens
And never thinks, | know.
That wintry days are coming.
That stockings do not grow.
So get your knitting-needles,
And when the socks are done,
Send them right on to Blackey,
She'll need them every one.
Then when cold winds are blowing,
Twill be rare sport to see
Twelve little chicks in stockings,
Each proud as proud can be.
