Jonathan Jo

Jonathan Jo
Has a mouth like an “O”

And a wheelbarrow full of surprises;

If you ask for a bat,
Or for something like that,

He has got it, whatever the size is.

[Man watching boy with cricket bat]

[Man showing hoop to boy]

If you’re wanting a ball,
It’s no trouble at all;

Why, the more that you ask for, the merrier—

Like a hoop and a top,
And a watch that won’t stop,

And some sweets, and an Aberdeen terrier.

[Worried man watching dog with ball]

Jonathan Jo
Has a mouth like an “O”

But this is what makes him so funny:

If you give him a smile,
Only once in a while,

Then he never expects any money!

[Man seated with boy and dog]
