A THORN
I went to the wood and got it; I sat me down to look for it And brought it home because I couldn't find it.
THE OLD WOMAN OF SURREY
There was an old woman in Surrey, Who was morn, noon, and night in a hurry; Called her husband a fool, Drove the children to school, The worrying old woman of Surrey.
THE LITTLE MOUSE
I have seen you, little mouse, Running all about the house, Through the hole your little eye In the wainscot peeping sly, Hoping soon some crumbs to steal, To make quite a hearty meal.
Look before you venture out, See if p.u.s.s.y is about.
If she's gone, you'll quickly run To the larder for some fun; Round about the dishes creep, Taking into each a peep, To choose the daintiest that's there, Spoiling things you do not care.
BOY AND GIRL
There was a little boy and a little girl Lived in an alley; Says the little boy to the little girl, "Shall I, oh, shall I?"
Says the little girl to the little boy, "What shall we do?"
Says the little boy to the little girl, "I will kiss you."
WHEN
When I was a bachelor I lived by myself; And all the bread and cheese I got I laid up on the shelf.
The rats and the mice They made such a strife, I was forced to go to London To buy me a wife.
The streets were so bad, And the lanes were so narrow, I was forced to bring my wife home In a wheelbarrow.
The wheelbarrow broke, And my wife had a fall; Down came wheelbarrow, Little wife and all.
SING, SING
Sing, sing, what shall I sing?
Cat's run away with the pudding-string!
Do, do, what shall I do?
The cat has bitten it quite in two.
LONDON BRIDGE
London Bridge is broken down, Dance over my Lady Lee; London Bridge is broken down, With a gay lady.
How shall we build it up again?
Dance over my Lady Lee; How shall we build it up again?
With a gay lady.
Build it up with silver and gold, Dance over my Lady Lee; Build it up with silver and gold, With a gay lady.
Silver and gold will be stole away, Dance over my Lady Lee; Silver and gold will be stole away, With a gay lady.
Build it up with iron and steel, Dance over my Lady Lee; Build it up with iron and steel, With a gay lady.
Iron and steel will bend and bow, Dance over my Lady Lee; Iron and steel will bend and bow, With a gay lady.
Build it up with wood and clay, Dance over my Lady Lee; Build it up with wood and clay, With a gay lady.
Wood and clay will wash away, Dance over my Lady Lee; Wood and clay will wash away, With a gay lady.
Build it up with stone so strong, Dance over my Lady Lee; Huzza! 'twill last for ages long, With a gay lady.
MARCH WINDS
March winds and April showers Bring forth May flowers.
THE BALLOON
"What is the news of the day, Good neighbor, I pray?"
"They say the balloon Is gone up to the moon!"
A CHERRY
As I went through the garden gap, Who should I meet but d.i.c.k Red-cap!
A stick in his hand, a stone in his throat,-- If you'll tell me this riddle, I'll give you a groat.
THE LOST SHOE
Doodle doodle doo, The Princess lost her shoe: Her Highness hopped,-- The fiddler stopped, Not knowing what to do.
