 They are perfect little ladies and are
 all pretty. too; All up-to- date and popular, and Uncle
 Sam will rue
 Any bargain that neglects to count
 these maidens in;
 For in test of high esteem they are
 the girls to win.
 Let him put his arms around them
 and pat their rosy cheeks,
 He'll find them jolly company and just
 the kind he seeks,
 And they'll not pull his whiskers if he

 can't afford to miss
 To enliven up his family and get 2
 bunch of pearls
 By acting as Q father to these lively,
 lovely girls.
