Here is a representative modern version of the lyrics:
(...)
What are little girls made of?
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice
And everything nice [or “all things nice”]
That’s what little girls are made of
 
5 March 1889, Albany (OR) Daily Democrat, pg. 3, col. 3:
According to Billy Kersands girls are
 
Cake and wine
And everything fine.
 
Boys:
Rice and spice
And everything nice.
 
Men:
Beer and fight
And stay out all night.
 
Old maids:
Rags and tags,
And old paper bags.
