Und der Nachbarssohn, der Ruprecht,
  Wie oft der des Tages kam;
Denn wir spielten ja im dunklen Hausflur
  Immer Braut und Bräutigam.

Und der grüne Puppenwagen,
  Der war unser grösstes Glück:
Unsre Kinder schliefen drinne,
  Unsre Kinder, meine Puppen - dreizehn Stück.

Composition:

    Set to music by Max Reger (1873 - 1916), "Kindergeschichte", op. 66 (Zwölf Lieder) no. 12 (1902) [ medium voice and piano ]
