GEORGIE PORGIE, THE REAL SKINNY

Image via Wikipedia

They say Georgie Porgie

Was kind of a tease,
But this subtle romantic,
Was with girls, ill at ease.

His favorite deserts were
sweet pudding and pie

And he always avoided
strong moonshine or rye.

     
His sole peccadillo
              Was hard to conceal

                         While he suffered from hiccups
                                    Before every meal.

                                     

He was bashful and nervous though freshly attired.

And a real nice boy who the kids all admired

    

He never kissed girls, he would not even try.

And his lack of attention would make the girls cry!

When Georgie was leaving, girls often would say,

                        “Come back, Georgie Porgie!  Please don’t run away!”
