Ban my little pearl;

God ant never making

Any nicer girl.

Dis har Qveen of Sheba,

She ban nice to see;

But little Tillie Olson

Ban gude enuff for me.

Much of dis vorld's goods.

Var ay used to be,

But little Tillie Olson

Ban gude enuff for me.

Over in Chicago

Op at Tillie's house,

Yust lak little mouse.

After ve ban married,

Happy ve skol be.

Yas, little Tillie Olson
