A BABY AT THE PARTY by BURGES JOHNSON

First Line: I FOUND ONE NIGHT, WHEN I AWOKE
Last Line: I CRIED THE LOUDER FOR MY BED.
Subject(s): BABIES; CHILDREN; PARTIES; INFANTS; CHILDHOOD;

I found one night, when I awoke,
They'd brought me down the stair
To show me to some noisy folk
Who were all eating there.
Such silly things they did and said,
I cried the louder for my bed.
