ODE TO LEXY
She is a beautiful girl is Lexy, hair in waves, as dark as Irish peat
Her tiny feet, she can run to greet you in the pale morning
Such a beautiful girl is sweet Lexy, as warm as Rosey by the fire
Her little hearts one desire, to be loved and cared for, therefore
I am the fiddler, I am the jaunty sailor leading thee, I’d never hurt thee
I’d bring thee home my wee, timorous girl and put you safely to yon’ bed
The sweetest doll is tiny Lexy, a morning song is my Lexy, a sonnet
And if she were a wee girl she must wear a flowered bonnet
