PLAYING DOCTOR by BURGES JOHNSON

First Line: SOME DAY I'LL BE A DOCTOR-MAN
Last Line: BY BRINGING AUNTY FROM THE HALL.
Subject(s): CHILDREN; PHYSICIANS; PLAY; CHILDHOOD; DOCTORS;
Some day I'll be a doctor-man,
So now I practise all I can.
We caught the cat, and Rover, too,
And tried to act as doctors do.
But baby howled and spoiled it all,
By bringing Aunty from the hall.
