Me And Little Andy

Late one cold and stormy night

I heard a dog barking

Then I thought I heard somebody

At my door knocking

Wondered who could be outside

In such an awful storm

Then I saw a little girl

With a puppy in her arms

Before I could say a word

She said "my name is Sandy

And this here is my puppy dog

His name is Little Andy"

Standing in the bitter cold

In just a ragged dress

When I asked her to come in

This is what she said

Ain't ya got no gingerbread

Ain't ya got no candy

Ain't ya got a extra bed for me and Little Andy

Pattycake a bakers man

My mamma ran away again

We was all alone and

Didn't know what else to do

I wondered if you'd let us stay with you

Giddy up tiny horse going to the mill

Can we stay all night?

If you don't love us no one will

I promise we won't cry

London bridge is falling down

My daddy's drunk again in town

We was all alone

And didn't know what else to do

I wondered if you'd let us stay with you

She was just a little girl

No more than six or seven

And late that night as they both slept

God took them both to heaven

God knew Little Andy would be lonesome with her gone

Now Sandy and her puppy dog will never be alone
