MOTHER GOOSE AND OTHERS - 2
Little
Miss Muffet
Sat
on a tuffet,
Eating
her curds and whey;
When
down came a spider,
And
sat down beside her,
And
frightened Miss Muffet away.
Down
at the station,
early in the morning,
See
the little puffer-billies all in a row;
See
the engine driver pull his little lever
Puff
puff, peep peep, off we go!
Baa,
baa, black sheep,
have
you any wool?
Yes,
sir, yes, sir,
three
bags full.
One
for the master,
and
one for the dame,
And
one for the little boy
who
lives down the lane.
Handy
spandy, sugary candy,
Frenchy
almond rock;
Bread
and butter for your supper,
That
is all your mother's got.
Hickory,
dickory, dock,
The
mouse ran up the clock.
The
clock struck one,
The
mouse ran down,
Hickory,
dickory, dock.
Hickety,
pickety, my black hen,
She
lays eggs for gentlemen;
Gentlemen
come every day
To
see what my black hen doth lay.
If
I had a donkey
that
wouldn't go,
D'you
think I'd beat him?
Oh,
no, no.
I'd
put him in a barn
and
give him
some corn,
The
best little donkey
that
ever was born.
One,
two, three,
four,
Mary's
at the cottage door,
Five,
six, seven, eight,
Eating
cherries off a plate.
The
wind, the wind, the wind blows high,
The
rain comes scattering down the sky.
She
is handsome, she is pretty,
She
is the girl of the golden city.
She
goes a-courting, one, two, three,
Please
and tell me who is she.
Handy
Spandy, Jack-a-Dandy,
Loved
plum cake and sugar candy.
He
bought some at a grocer's shop,
And
out he came, hop, hop, hop, hop.
Lilies
are white, Rosemary's green,
When
I am king, You shall be queen.
Roses
are red, Violets are blue,
Sugar
is sweet
And so are you.
Little
Tommy Tucker Sings for his supper.
What
shall we give him? Brown bread and butter.
How
shall he cut it Without e'er a knife?
How
shall he marry Without e'er a wife?
Ding
dong bell,
Pussy's
in the well.
Who
put her in?
Little
Johnny Green.
Who
pulled her out?
Little
Tommy Stout.
What
a naughty boy was that
To
try to drown poor pussy cat,
Who
never
did him any harm,
But
killed the mice in his father's barn.
