W:2. Light she was and like a fairy and her shoes were number nine,
W:herring boxes without topses, sandals were for Clementine.
W:3. Drove she ducklings to the water, ev'ry morning just at nine,
W:hit her foot against a splinter, fell into the foaming brine.
W:4. Ruby lips above the water, blowing bubbles, soft and fine.
W:Alas for me, I was no swimmer, so I lost my Clementine.
W:5. In my dreams she still doth hunt me, robbed in garments, soaked in brine,
W:but I kissed her little sister and forgot my Clementine.
