| The Lincolns are expecting |
| They're making room for another |
| As of now we cannot know if |
| It's a sister or a brother. |
| |
| Now Daddy Lincoln would be glad |
| We know his heart would leap with joy |
| If the something they're expecting |
| Turned out to be a boy. |
| |
| The Lincolns have three lovely daughters |
| And they dearly love each one |
| But we're sure they'd be quite happy |
| With a darling little son. |
| |
| And Mama Lincoln, this we know |
| Would be as proud as anyone |
| If she could please her husband |
| By giving him a son. |
| |
| But if the bundle they're expecting |
| Should be a Miss with golden curls |
| The Lincolns will be sure to say, |
| "We're proud of our quartet of girls." |
