As I Was Walking Down the Street
As I was walking down the street
As quiet as can be
A great big ugly man came up
And tied his horse to me!

And tied his horse to me!
Baa Baa Black Sheep,

one for the little boy
who lives down the lane.

Boys and girls come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day.
Leave your supper and leave your sleep,
and join your playfellows in the street.
Come with a whoop and come with a call,
Come with a good will or not at all.
Up the ladder and down the wall,
A halfpenny loaf will serve us all;
You find milk, and I’ll find flour,
And we’ll have a pudding in half an hour
Bye, baby bunting,
Father’s gone a-hunting,
Mother’s gone a-milking,
Sister’s gone a-silking,
Brother’s gone to buy a skin
To wrap the baby bunting in.
Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe,
Give it a stitch and that will do.
Here’s a nail, and there’s a prod,
And now my shoe is well shod.

Come, butter, come!
Peter stands at the gate,
Waiting for a buttered cake;
Come, butter, come.
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
Went to bed with his stockings on;
One shoe off, and one shoe on,
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John.
Ding, dong, bell,
The cat’s down the well!
Who put her in?
Little Tommy Green.
Who pulled her out?
Big Johnny Stout.
What a naughty boy was that,
To drown poor kitty-cat,
Who never did him any harm,
But killed the mice in his father’s barn!
Doctor Foster
went to Gloucester
in a shower of rain
he stepped in a puddle
right up to his middle
and never went there again.
Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry;
When the boys came out to play,
Georgie Porgie ran away
Oh, the grand old Duke of York,
He had ten thousand men,
he marched them up to the top of the hill
and he marched them down again,
and when they were up they were up
and when they were down they were down
and when they were only half way up
they were neither up nor down
Hey! diddle, diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed
To see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

The pig flew up in the air,
The man in brown
soon brought him down

Hickety, pickety, my black hen
She lays eggs for gentlemen;
Sometimes nine and sometimes ten
Hickety, pickety, my black hen
Higglety, pigglety, pop!
The dog has eaten the mop;
The pig’s in a hurry,
The cat’s in a flurry,
Higglety, pigglety, pop!
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again.
If wishes were horses,
beggars would ride.
If turnips were watches,
I’d wear one by my side.
And if “ifs” and “ands”
Were pots and pans,
There’d be no work for tinkers!
Jack and Jill went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown
and Jill came tumbling after.
Up Jack got and home did trot,
As fast as he could caper,
To old Dame Dob, who patched his nob
with vinegar and brown paper
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jack jump over the candle stick
Jack jumped high and Jack jumped low
Jack jumped over and burnt his toe
Jack Sprat could eat no fat,
His wife could eat no lean,
And so betwixt the two of them,
They licked the platter clean.
1.
Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep
and doesn’t know where to find them.
leave them alone and they’ll come home
bringing their tails behind them.
2.
Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep,
and dreamed she hear they bleating,
but when she awoke, she found it a joke
for they were still a-fleeting
3.
Then up she took her little crook,
determined for to find them,
she found them indeed, and it made her heart speed
for they were wagging their tails behind them.
4.
It happened one day, as Bo-peep did stray
Into a meadow hard by,
There she espied their tails side by side,
All hung on a tree to dry.
5.
She heaved a sigh, and wiped her eye,
and over the hillocks went rambling,
and tried what she could, as a shepherdess should
to tack again each to its lambkin.
Little Boy Blue,
Come blow your horn
The sheep’s in the meadow,
The cow’s in the corn
But where’s the boy
who looks after the sheep?
He’s under a haycock,
fast asleep
Will you wake him?
No, not I!
For if I do,
He’s sure to cry.
Little Jack Horner
Sat in a corner,
Eating a Christmas pie;
He put in his thumb,
And pulled out a plum,
And said, “What a good boy am I?”
Little Miss Muffet,
Sat on a tuffet,
eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away.
Little Tommy Tucker
Sings for his supper;
What shall we give him?
White bread and butter.
How shall he cut it
without a knife?
How will he be married
without any wife?
