My Laddie
By Mary Mapes Dodge
Oh! have you seen my laddie?
His heart is true and kind;
His cheeks are fresh and rosy,
His hair floats on the wind.
He's a brave and lightsome laddie,
On honest toil intent.
Oh! we had some words this morning,
And I don't know where he went.
You'll know if he's my laddie
By the twinkle in his ee
When you whisper to him softly
That he may come to me.
