They never seem to know,

That Mud Pies have to be made

Just exactly so.

You have a nice back yard,

A sunny pleasant day.

And you ask some boys and girls

To come around to play.

You mix some mud up in a pail

And stir it with a stick

It musn't be a bit too thin

And not a bit too thick.

And then you make it into pies.

And pat it with your hands.

And bake it on a nice flat board.

And my, but they are grand.
