A Bonnie Wee Lassie whose name it was Nell,
Lived in a house where her grandmother dwelled.
The house it was small, and the windows no less;
Having four panes one needed a glass.
Oh, that nice little window, that cute little window,
That sweet little window where grandmother dwelled.

“Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, I think it amiss,
Before going away just to give me one kiss.
Johnny, Oh Johnny, one kiss!”
“That I will, Nellie,” he answered her true.
To her surprise he stuck his head through
That nice little window, that cute little window,
That sweet little window where grandmother dwelled

. He gave her three kisses, and great was the smack!
Great was the smack!
To his surprise he couldn’t get his head back
From that nice little window, that cute little window,
That sweet little window where grandmother dwelled.

He ripped and he tore, and he cussed and he swore.
Cussed and he swore!
Grandma heard the racket and came through the door.
She picked up the ladle from out of the pot.
No batter e’er took the beating he got
With his head in the window, that cute little window,
That sweet little window where grandmother dwelled.

She picked up the poker, and a lick she gave one.
Another like that would have broke his backbone.
He ran down the road with might and with main,
While around his shoulder the sash and the frame
Of that nice little window, that cute little window,
That sweet little window where grandmother dwelled.
