 ! LITTLE BOY BLUE | The little toy dog is covered with dust ! But sturdy and stanch he stands: ! And the little toy soldier Is red with rust.
 l And his muslet molds in his hands. 1 Time was when the little toy dog was i new,
 1 And the soldier was passing fair; And that was the time our Little Boy i Blue
 Kissed them and put them there. Now, don't go till come" he said, ! And don't you make any noisei" So toddiing off to his trundle bed.
 He dreamed of the pretty toys; And, as he was dreaming, an angel | song
 Awakened our Little Boy Blue Oh. the years are many, the years are
 long,
 But the little toy friends are true!
 Ay. faithful to Little Boy Blue they
 stand,
 Each in the same old place.
 Awaiting the touch of little hand.
 The smile of little face;
 And they wonder, as waiting the Ions
 years through In the dust of that little chair
 What has become of our Little Bo! Blue.
 Since he kissed them and put then there.
