Vote! Said the Lady With the Alligator Purse!

 Susan B. Anthony was known for carrying a large alligator purse.  People recognized her by the outfit she always wore: black dress, red shawl, and alligator purse!  

This jump rope rhyme was written about her.  I think we all need this reminder right now.  It's not too late!  Election day is tomorrow!

Vote! Said the Lady With the Alligator Purse!

Miss Lulu had a baby.

She called him Tiny Tim.

She put him in the bathtub

to see if he could swim.

He drank up all the water

He ate up all the soap.

He tried to eat the bathtub

but it wouldn’t go down his throat.

Call for the doctor

Call for the nurse

Call for the Lady

with the Alligator Purse!

Mumps, said the doctor

Measles, said the nurse

Vote! said the Lady

With the Alligator Purse!
