Me And
Little Andy
D
1. Late one cold and stormy night, I heard a dog
a-barking.
Then I thought I heard somebody at my door
a-knocking.
G A D G
I wondered who could be outside in such an
awful storm.
A D
And then I saw a little girl with a puppy
in her arms.
D
2. Before I could say a word, she said, "My
name is Sandy.
And this here is my puppy dog, his name is
little Andy!"
G A D G
Standing in the bitter cold in just a
ragged a dress,
A D
then I asked her to come in, and this is
what she said:
D
3. "Ain't'cha got no gingerbread? Ain't'cha
got no candy?
Ain't'cha got an extra bed for me and
little Andy?
G A D G
Patty-cake and baker's man, my mommy ran
away again,
A
and we was all alone and didn't know what
else to do –
A7 D
I wonder if you'll let us stay with you?
D
4. Giddy-up, Charlie Horse, c'mon, Chicken Li'l,
can we stay all night?
If you don't love us, no one will, I
promise we won't cry.
G A D G
London bridge is falling down, my daddy's
drunk again in town,
A
and we was all alone, and didn't know what
we could do –
A7 D
we wondered if you'd let us stay with
you?"
D
5. She was just a little girl, not more than six
or seven,
but that night as they slept, the angels
took them both to heaven.

A D G
God knew little Andy would be lonesome with
her gone,
A D
now Sandy and her puppy dog won't ever be
alone.
"Ain't'cha got no gingerbread?
Ain't'cha got no candy?
Ain't'cha got an extra bed for me and
little Andy?"
