Thems Po Little Minks

I heard it said some mama minks
eats they young before thems think.
Thems gets all excited, raises a stink,
and eats all they babies
(thems po little minks).

Now, I figures it logical
thems mama minks
has missed something somewheres,
missed too many winks,
maybe thems wakes up with too many kinks,
stays out too late, has too many drinks,
comes home all dizzy and ready to sink,
and eats all they babies
(thems po little minks).
