Baa, Baa, Black Sheep.

Baa, baa, Black Sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes, marry, have I,
Three bags full:



One for my Master,
And one for my Dame,
And one for the little boy...

Cock-A-Doodle-Doo.


Cock-a-doodle-doo!
My dame has lost her shoe;
My master's lost his fiddling-stick,
And don't know what to do.

Cock-a-doodle-doo!
What is my dame to do?...

Good King Arthur.


When good king Arthur ruled this land,
He was a goodly king;
He stole three pecks of barley-meal,
To make a bag-pudding.

A bag-pudding the king did make,...

Goosey, Goosey Gander.


Goosey, Goosey Gander,
Where shall I wander?



Upstairs, downstairs,
And in my lady's chamber.



There I met an old man...

Hickety Pickety My Black Hen.


Hickety, pickety, my black hen,
She lays eggs for gentlemen;



Gentlemen come every day
To see what my black hen doth lay.

Humpty Dumpty.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall;



Humpty Dumpty had a great fall;







All the King's horses and all the King's men...

Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,
And can't tell where to find them;
Leave them alone, and they'll come home,
And bring their tails behind them.



Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep,...

Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet
Eating of curds and whey;



There came a big Spider
And sat down beside her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away.

Oranges And Lemons.


Gay go up, and gay go down
To ring the bells of London Town.



Bull's eyes and targets,
Say the bells of St. Marg'ret's.

Brickbats and tiles,...

Ring a ring o' roses,
A pocket full of posies;
Hush! hush! hush!
And we all tumble down.

The Lion And The Unicorn.


The Lion and the Unicorn
Were fighting for the Crown;
The Lion beat the Unicorn
All round about the town.





Some gave them white bread,...

The Man in the Moon
Came tumbling down,
And asked his way to Norwich;



They told him south,
And he burnt his mouth
With eating cold pease-porridge.

There was a little man,
And he had a little gun,
And his bullets were made of lead, lead, lead;
He went to the brook
And saw a little duck,
And he shot it right through the head, head, head.

...

There Was A Man.


There was a man, and he had nought,
And robbers came to rob him;



He crept up to the chimney-pot,





And then they could not find him;...

The Three Wise Men Of Gotham.

Three wise men of Gotham
Went to sea in a bowl:



If the bowl had been stronger,
My song would have been longer.

To Market, To Market.


To market, to market, to buy a fat Pig;
Home again, home again, dancing a jig.





To market, to market, to buy a fat Hog;...

Wee Willie Winkie.


Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,
Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown,
Rapping at the window, crying through the lock,...
