| Danty baby diddy, What can mammy do wid’e? Sit in her lap, And she’ll give you some pap, Danty baby diddy! |
Bye, baby bunting,
Father’s gone a-hunting,
To get a little rabbit-skin
To wrap the baby bunting in.
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
Not all the king’s horses, nor all the king’s men,
Could set Humpty Dumpty up again.
A Long-tail’d pig,
Or a short-tail’d pig,
Or a pig without a tail?
A sow-pig, or a boar-pig,
Or a pig with a curly tail?
| Little Tom Tucker Sings for his supper: What shall he eat? White bread and butter. How shall he cut it Without e’er a knife? How will he be married Without e’er a wife? |
Pat a cake, pat a cake, baker’s man;
So I will, master, as fast as I can;
Pat it, and prick it, and mark it with B,
And toss it in the oven for baby and me.
See-saw, Margery-daw,
Harry shall have a new master;
He shall not have but a penny a-day,
Because he won’t work any faster.
The man in the moon
Came down too soon,
And ask’d his way to Norwich;
He went by the south,
And burnt his mouth
With eating cold plum-porridge.
| Little Jack Horner Sat in a corner, Eating a Christmas pie; He put in his thumb And pull’d out a plum, And said, “What a brave boy am I!” |
See-saw, sacaradown,
Which is the way to London town?
One foot up, the other foot down,
That is the way to London town.
