There Once Was a Farmer

There once was a farmer
who took a young miss,
In back of the barn where
he gave her a. .

Lesson on horses and
chickens and eggs,
And told her that she
had such beautiful. .

Manners that suited a
girl of her charms,
A girl that he wanted to
take in his. .

Washing and ironing and
then as she did,
They could get married
and raise up some. .

Sweet violets,
Sweeter than all the roses,
Covered all over from head to toe,
Sweet violets.
