   Years passed, I grew, I worked my way,
   My sweet young mistress on me doted,
   She in the kitchen came one day,
   And there she to the cook did say,
   That I should be promoted.
   She thought it wrong to have me thrust
   In a dark kitchen underground,
   Exposed to damp and dirt, and dust,
   When better business could be found.
   Heaven was her bed soon after this;
   My kitchen clothes aside were laid,
   Out through the park around the town,
   And in the squares all up and down,
   I marched with master and with miss,
   A dressy children's maid;
   Oh! then, the easy times I had,
   My looks were gay, my heart was glad;
   Of gowns I had full half a score,
   With flounces, a yard deep or more,
   All gathering 'round the tail.
   And then I had a big straw bonnet,
   That flapped and fluttered in the wind,
   And there were heaps of ribbons on it
   Tied up with knots of every kind.
   I was a tidy girl to see,
   My mistress took a pride in me.
