Willie. And it’s lazy to go to sleep In broad daylight, and then, besides, You should have watched your sheep.
(All sing. Tune: No. 16.)
No. 16. LITTLE BO PEEP.
All. Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep, And don’t know where to find them. Wee Willie Wink knows where, we think. He ran along behind them.
Bo Peep. I think so, too. He’s a naughty boy! To tease some one is his great joy. He should be spanked and put to bed!
Old Woman. Yes, that is what I’ve always said.
(Boy Blue runs in, tooting horn.)
Boy Blue. Has any one seen my cows to-day? While I was asleep, they ran away. Which one of you let down the meadow bars?
