A smile doth wear.
And Sambo sings a song.

While in their midst the artist head
Of "Golliwogg" appears,
With Peg beside,
Whose graceful stride
No criticism fears.

But even wooden limbs get tired
And want a chance of play,
So "Golliwogg"
A "jolly dog"
Suggests they run away.

The big shop door is bolted fast,
But through the yard behind,
Peggy has spied
One open wide,
Which she will shortly find.

A touch--A push--and out they fly
Into the starlight night;
No one must know
