oh, the girl who wields the chaiing dish

No matrimonial bark Will sink

And the rarebits that she serves YOU are
Like precious jewels, rare.
oh, the girl who wells the chatting dish
She Is n dainty maid:
She leaves all other winsome girls
Completely in the shade
We like to see her ivory hands
The chafing dish caresslng;
We like TO taste the toothsome bits
Her fingers have been dressing.

She truly Is queen:

Wherever she Is seen.
