Georgie Porgie

Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry.
When the boys came out to play
Georgie Porgie ran away.

The Cat Has Eat The Pudding-String

Sing, sing, what shall I sing ?
The cat has eat the pudding-string !
Do, do, what shall I do ?
The cat has bit it quite in two.

Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat


"Pussy cat, pussy cat, where have you been?"

"I've been to London to look at the queen."

"Pussy cat, pussy cat, what did you there?"

" I frightened a little mouse under the chair."

Hush-A-Bye, Baby



Hush-a-bye, baby,
  On the tree top,
When the wind blows
  The cradle will rock;
When the bough breaks
  The cradle will fall,
Down will come baby,
  And cradle, and all.

Little Tom Tucker

Little Tom Tucker
  Sings for his supper:
What shall he eat ?
  White bread and butter.

How can he marry
  Without e'er a wife ?
How shall he cut it
  Without e'er a knife.

Little Bo-Peep


Little Bo-peep has lost her shep,
  And cannot tell where to find them;
Leave them alone and they'll come home,
  And carry their tails behind them.

Little Bo-peep fell fast asleep,
  And dreamt she heard them bleating;
But when she awoke, she found it a joke,
  For they were all fleeting.

Then up she took her little crook,
  Determined for to find them;
She found them indeed, but it made her
         heart bleed,
   For they'd left their tails behind them.
