"Never went to Yale" (1947); Blast from the Past

[bapopik at AOL.COM]

July 1947, Utah (later, Western) Humanities Reveiw, vol. 1, no. 3
Margeurite Ivins Wilson: _Yours Till--: A Study of Children's Autograph Rhymes in Utah_

Pg. 246:
I never went to college,
I never went to Yale,
But I spent my life a-living
In the Salt Lake City jail.

Yours till Bear Lake has cubs.

Pg. 248:
Yours till bobby pins get seasick from sitting on too many permanent waves.
Yours till butter flies.
Yours till table legs wear stockings.
Yours till the kitchen sinks.
Yours till the sun sets dishes on your table.

Pg. 249:
Rain on the roof,
Reminds me of you,
Drip, drip, drip.

I copied your papers,
And I flunked too.

Pg. 250:
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
But I think
It's a little P.U.

When you are married and have some twins,
Call on me for some safety pins.

Pg. 252:
When you get old,
And think you're sweet,
Take off your shoes,
And smell your feet.

Pg. 253:
As sure as the grass grows around the stump,
You are my darling sugar plum;
As sure as the rat runs across the rafter,
I hope you get the boy you're after.

Cows like cabbage,
Pigs like squash,
I like you,
I do, by gosh.

I love you big,
I love you mighty,
I wish my pajamas,
Were close to your nighty.
Pg. 254:
Now don't get excited,
And out of your head,
I mean on the clothesline,
And not in the bed.

Pg. 255:
I hope you sit on a tack of success and rise rapidly.

Pg. 256:
First comes love,
Then comes marriage,
Then comes Jane
With a baby carriage.

Pg. 257:
Don't go to London,
Don't go to France;
Stay here in Utah,
And give the boys a chance.

Butter is butter,
Cheese is cheese,
What's a kiss,
Without a squeeze?

Pg. 258:
The higher the mountain,
The cooler the breeze;
The younger the couple,
The tighter the squeeze.

Poor ink,
Poor pen,
Can't think,
Amen.

I'm not a Southern beauty,
I'm not an Eastern rose,
I'm just a little Western girl,
With freckles on her nose.

O U Q T,
I N V U.
