How did Frankie get her name?
Was it lying on the floor,
Where noone else had looked before?
Did she pluck it from a tree?
It was hanging there so beautifully!
Was it on a pirate ship,
where Captain Blackbeard slept on it?
Was it stuck inside a shell?
Making noises like a bell?
Look! It's there! In the flower pot,
underneath forget-me-nots
Oops, that was not her name -
Maybe we should end this game?
Let me tell you how it came to be,
that you were named Miss Frances Leigh;
Your daddy picked it out you see,
he chose it out especially,
for his lovely little baby girl,
the happiest Frankie in all the world.
