Do ee naw ol Mallee Pijee? She da live owt loang weth we. Twoz er booy that clunkd tha clijee Weth owt chowen obm up yoo see.
An ee screechd an skwaald soa orrid Wen ee naw wot ee ad dun, That ol Mallee got quite wurrid Az shay rund nex dooer ta Baetsee Gun.
“ Aw! tha cheeld av clunkd es nicey An ee niver chowd un up! An es innerds es that awful That eez yowlen like a leeree pup.”
“ Aw ! tez wisht shooer nuff” sez Baetsee “ An twoz awnlee t’awthur dae Wen I scat sum cloem ta shevers That ar mallard went an clunkd a gae.
“ Goa an tell tha booy ta wans now Fer ta crawl dree times down steears An tull move et like a charm, soas Er eel chuck like Toamee Gidga’s veers!”
Soa ee crawld down steears toa wans yow But et dedn move et toll. An oll Mallee screechd an hollad “ Aw! wot can ee do fer me poor soall.”
Then Jem Buzza cumen up-loang Catchd tha booy awld be tha eels An ee shaak un like a winnard An that crd un ov ez paens an skweels!
This song is full of Dialect idiom, “clunkd tha cljee weth owt chowen obm” and “scat sum clome ta shevers” which means ‘swallowed the toffee without chewing it’ and ‘broken some eathenware pottery into small pieces’ – wonderful!
