Analysis of Little Ole You
Little one
Please go home
An do tell your mommy
That the big old bad wolf
Has been looking,and a chasing you
And won't never give up
Til he has you in his clutches
Or a grasp of a grip
That will never let you go
As I the Big Old Bad Wolf
Only wants to eat you
So please little one
By all means do go home
And do report all this
Or tell your Mommy
That I am a looking for you
As you will be my guest
For the very next of meals
So little ones
Please be extra careful
As not to fall a prey unto me
Because I do have such
An ole hungier of appetites
As i'm still waiting for little ole you.
