Playmate, come out and play with me
   And bring your dollies, three
   Climb up my apple tree
   Look down my rain-barrel
   Slide down my cellar door
   And we'll be jolly friends forever more
  
   But she couldn't come out and play
   It was a rainy day
   With tearful eye she breathed a sigh
   And I could hear her say
  
   I'm sorry, playmate, I cannot play with you
   My dolly's got the flu, boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
   Ain't got no rain-barrel, ain't got no cellar door
   But we'll be jolly friends forever more
  
   Well, she couldn't come out and play
   It was a rainy day
   With tearful eye she breathed a sigh
   And I could hear her say
  
   I'm sorry, playmate, I cannot play with you
   My dolly's got the flu, boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
   Ain't got no rain-barrel, ain't got no cellar door
   But we'll be jolly friends forever more
