No. 20 - Song - Miyo - "The little Japanese Mamma"
Miyo: | Happy little Jappy, Mother's little baby boy! Round little head and big brown eyes, Grave as a judge and O so wise! Upsy-Daisy, baby! Baby look at nice new toy! He's going out for a nice ta-ta, Perched on the back of his dear mamma! Baby good! Baby bad! If you pinch him he will cry, |
Chorus: | Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi! |
Miyo: | If you soothe him he will smile, Tho' he's sleeping all the while! If you tickle him he will laugh, |
Chorus: | Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! |
Miyo: | Will the little Japanese baby Of the little Japanese mamma! Mamma! Mamma! The little Japanese mamma! |
Miyo: | Peeping over shoulder, Baby's bonny face you'll find, Close to your neck he'll clutch and cling, Safe in his seat he'll sit and swing! Off we go to market, Baby sitting up behind; Riding along like a Samurai, Nose in the air and his head on high! Baby good! Baby bad! If you pinch him he will cry, |
Chorus: | Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi! |
Miyo: | If you soothe him he will smile, Tho' he's sleeping all the while! If you tickle him he will laugh, |
Chorus: | Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! |
Miyo: | Will the little Japanese baby Of the little Japanese mamma! Mamma! Mamma! The little Japanese mamma! |
