“Oh, where did she catch the fishie,
My bonny wee croodlen doo?”
“She catch’d it in the gutter hole;
Mak my bed, mammie, noo!”
“And what did you do wi’ the bones o’t,
My bonny wee croodlen doo?”
“I gied them to my little dog;
Mak my bed, mammie, noo!”
“And what did the little doggie do,
My little wee croodlen doo?”
“He stretched out his head, and his feet, and dee’d,
As I do, mammie, noo!”
Baby cry,
Wipe his eye.
Baby good,
Give him food.
Baby sleepy,
Go to bed.
Baby naughty,
Smack his head.
O, can ye sew cushions,
Can ye sew sheets,
Can ye sing Ba-loo-loo,
When the bairnie greets?
And hee and ba, birdie,
And hee and ba, lamb;
And hee and ba, birdie,
My bonnie lamb!
