Curly locks, Curly Locks, wilt thou be ours? <br />Thou shalt not wash dishes, nor yet weed the flowers, <br />But stand in the kitchen and cook a fine meal, <br />And ride every night in an automobile. <br /> <br />Curly Locks, Curly Locks, come to us soon! <br />Thou needest not to rise until mid-afternoon; <br />Thou mayest be Croatian, Armenian, or Greek; <br />Thy guerdon shall be what thy askest per week. <br /> <br />Curly Locks, Curly Locks, give us a chance! <br />Thou shalt not wash windows, nor iron my pants. <br />Oh, come to the cosiest of seven-room bowers, <br />Curly Locks, Curly Locks, wilt thou be ours?<br /><br />Franklin P.
