Miss Polly had a Dolly
Miss Polly had a dolly who was sick, sick, sick,
So she called for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick. The doctor came with his bag and his hat,
And he knocked on the door with a rat-a-tat-tat. He looked at the dolly and he shook his head,
He said “Miss Polly, put her straight to bed!”
He wrote on a paper for some pills, pills, pills.
“I’ll be back in the morning with my bill, bill, bill.”
