AN OLD SONG BY NEW SINGERS: 'MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB': 1. DOBSON, by                    
First Line: A little lamb had mary, sweet
Last Line: With a fleece that shamed the driven snow.
Subject(s): Dobson, Austin (1840-1921)


A little lamb had Mary, sweet,
With a fleece that shamed the driven snow.
Not alone Mary went when she moved her feet
(For a little lamb had Mary, sweet),
And it tagged her 'round with a pensive bleat,
And wherever she went it wanted to go;
A little lamb had mary, sweet,
With a fleece that shamed the driven snow.
