| Nick me with any old name | L |
| Class me up for a fish a gorilla a slant head an egg a ham | M |
| Only slam me across the ears sometimes and hunt for a white star | N |
| In my forehead and twist the bang of my forelock around it | O |
| Make a wish for me Maybe I will light out like a streak of wind | P |
