Old Bob White's a funny bird! -- Funniest you ever heard! -- Hear him whistle, -- "Old -- Bob -- _White_!"
You can hear him, clean from where He's 'way 'crosst the wheat-field there, Whistlin' like he didn't care -- "Old-Bob-_White_!"
Whistles alluz ist the same -- So's we won't fergit his name! -- Hear him say it? -- "Old -- Bob -- _White_! " _There! _ he's whizzed off down the lane -- Gone back where his folks is stayin' -- Hear him? -- There he goes again, -- "Old -- Bob -- _White_!"
When boys ever tries to git Clos't to him -- how quick he'll quit Whistlin' his "Old-Bob -- _White_!"
"_Whoo-rhoo-rhoo! _" he's up an' flew, Ist a-purt'-nigh skeerin' you Into fits! -- 'At's what he'll do. -- "Old-Bob -- _White_!"
Wunst our Hired Man an' me, When we drove to Harmony, Saw one, whistlin' "Old -- Bob -- _White_!"
An' we drove _wite clos't_, an' I Saw him an' he didn't fly, -- Birds likes horses, an' that's why.
"Old -- Bob -- _White_!"
