It's time to take the window to see Leerie going by; For every night at teatime and before you take your seat, With lantern and mth ladder he comes posting up the street. And Leerie stops to light it as he lights so many more Now Tom would be a driver and Maria go to sea, And my papa's a banker and as rich as he can be; But I, w^hen I am stronger and c^n choose w^hat I'm to do, O Leerie, I'll go round at night and light the lamps w^ith you! For we are very lucky, with a lamp before the door, An...d Leerie stops to light it as he lights so many more ; And oh ! before you hurry by w^ith ladder and w^ith light; O Leerie, see a little child and nod to him to-night! MY BED IS A BOAT My bed is like a little boat; Nurse helps me in when I embark; She girds me in my sailor's coat And starts me in the dark. At night, I go on board and say Good-night to all my friends on shore; I shut my eyes and sail away And see and hear no more. And sometimes things to bed I take, As prudent sailors have to do; Perhaps a slice of wedding-cake, Perhaps a toy or two.
