Nanty, Panty, Jack-a-Dandy,
Stole a piece of sugar-candy,
From the grocer’s shoppy-shop,
And away did hoppy-hop!
Lucy Locket lost her pocket,
Kitty Fisher found it,
Never a farthing was therein,
But little fishes drowned.
Riggity jig, riggity jig,
Who’ll go to market to ride in a gig?
A fair little maid, and a nice little man,
Shall ride off to market as fast as they can.
Polly, put the kettle on,
And let’s have tea!
Polly put the kettle on,
And we’ll all have tea.
Mr Mason bought a basin,
Mr Rice asked the price,
Mr Hicks fell in his tricks,
And bounced the basin on the bricks.
