I am a little orphan girl,
My ma and pa are dead;
The Phyllis Wheatley mamas me
And gives me what I need.

They give me pretty clothes to wear,
And books to read I love;
May long life and success bless
The Phyllis Wheatley Culture Club.

All little girls are not like me blessed,
To have someone to care for them
When their parents are at rest,
But the Phyllis Wheatley has seen fit to take me in their breast.
