A WARNING TO MOTHER.

Do your Christmas shopping early, do it early,
mother dear.
Before the rush and hustle of the last few days
are here;
Go down while the assortment is abundant and
unique,
Twill save you loads of worry and excitement
Christmas week!
Make haste and go today, mother; arise at
break of dawn,
And hurry down and take your pick before the
best is gone.
The clerks are all attention; if YOU wait there
is no doubt
They'll be worn to fragile and completely
tuckered Quit
Don't wait another week, mother; go buy the
diamond ring
Which ever since year ago I've had upon the
string;
And don't forget the set of furs you promised
me you'd see
That Santa Claus would surely place upon the
Christmas tree!
The rush will soon be great, mother, so take
the tip hand,
The reason for it later you will see and UNDER
stand,
The crowds will soon be swarming into every
shop and store
If were o..y you wouldn't wait single hour
So do your shopping early, do it early mother
dear!
Go down, before the choicest of the presents
disappear;
And then you'll not be bothered by that same
old Christmas cry:
"The best Of everything is gone; don't know
what to buy"
