Playmate
(Come Out and Play With Me)

Hey, hey, oh playmate,
Come out and play with me.
You'll bring your dollies three,
Climb up my apple tree.
Look down my rain barrel,
Slide down my cellar door.
And we'll be jolly friends
Forever more.

So sorry, playmate
I cannot play with you.
My dolly's got the flu.
Boo-hoo-oo-oo-oo.
I have no rain barrel,
I have no cellar door.
But we'll be jolly friends
For ever more.
