Me and Little Andy

Late one cold and stormy night I heard a dog-a-barkin'
Then I thought I heard somebody at my door a knockin'
I 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
It's name is little andy
Standing in the bitter cold in just a ragged dress
Then I asked her to come in and this is what she said

Ain't ya got no gingerbread? Ain't ya got no candy?
Ain't ya got an extra bed for me and little andy?

Patty cake, a baker's man, my mommy 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

Giddyup charlie 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 we could do
We wondered if you'd let us stay with you

She was just a little girl, not more than six or seven
That night as they slept the angels took them both to heaven
God knew little andy would be lonesome with her gone
Now sandy and her puppy dog won't ever be alone

Ain't ya got no gingerbread? Ain't ya got no candy?
Ain't ya got an extra bed for me and little andy
