Molly was a dog. Children's song

Heather Lydia Thornhill

Lyric
Molly was a dog a dog I love
Say hey molly molly hey hey

She had a nose just like a hog
Say hey molly molly hey hey

She would run and jump on logs
Say hey molly molly hey hey

She liked to lay upon the rug
Say hey molly molly hey hey

She ate so much she was so snug
Say hey molly molly hey hey
