Rhyme Scheme: ABABACAC ACACABAB| I once had a sweet little doll dears | A |
| The prettiest doll in the world | B |
| Her cheeks were so red and white dears | A |
| And her hair was so charmingly curled | B |
| But I lost my poor little doll dears | A |
| As I played in the heath one day | C |
| And I cried for her more than a week dears | A |
| But I never could find where she lay | C |

| I found my poor little doll dears | A |
| As I played in the heath one day | C |
| Folks say she is terribly changed dears | A |
| For her paint is all washed away | C |
| And her arms trodden off by the cows dears | A |
| And her hair not the least bit curled | B |
| Yet for old sakes' sake she is still dears | A |
| The prettiest doll in the world | B |
