Boy And His Stomach Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCBB DDEE FFGG

What's the matter with you ain't I always been your friendA
Ain't I been a pardner to you All my pennies don't I spendA
In gettin' nice things for you Don't I give you lots of cakeB
Say stummick what's the matter that you had to go an' acheB
-
Why I loaded you with good things yesterday I gave you moreC
Potatoes squash an' turkey than you'd ever had beforeC
I gave you nuts an' candy pumpkin pie an' chocolate cakeB
An' las' night when I got to bed you had to go an' acheB
-
Say what's the matter with you ain't you satisfied at allD
I gave you all you wanted you was hard jes' like a ballD
An' you couldn't hold another bit of puddin' yet las' nightE
You ached mos' awful stummick that ain't treatin' me jes' rightE
-
I've been a friend to you I have why ain't you a friend o' mineF
They gave me castor oil last night because you made me whineF
I'm awful sick this mornin' an' I'm feelin' mighty blueG
'Cause you don't appreciate the things I do for youG
