Our House

We play at our house and have all sorts of fun,
An’ there’s always a game when the supper is
done;
An’ at our house there’s marks on the walls an’
the stairs,
An’ some terrible scratches on some of the chairs ;
An’ ma says that our house is really a fright,
But pa and I say that our house is all right.
At our house we laugh an’ we sing an’ we shout,
An’ whirl all the chairs an’ the tables about,
An’ I rassle my pa an’ I get him down too,
An’ he’s all out of breath when the fightin’ is
through ;
An’ ma says that our house is surely a sight,
But pa an’ I say that our house is all right.
I’ve been to houses with pa where I had
To sit in a chair like a good little lad,
An’ there wasn’t a mark on the walls an’ the
chairs,
An’ the stuff that we have couldn’t come up to
theirs ;
An’ pa said to ma that for all of their joy
He wouldn’t change places an’ give up his boy.
They never have races nor rassles nor fights,
Coz they have no children to play with at nights ;
An’ their walls are all clean an’ their curtains
hang straight,
An’ everything’s shiny an’ right up to date ;
But pa says with all of its racket an’ fuss,
He’d rather by far live at our house with us.
