She went to the cobbler's To buy him some shoes, He was reading the news. She went to the hosier's To buy him some hose, But when she came back He was dress'd in his clothes. The dame made a curtsy, The dog made a bow: 4. ONE misty moisty morning, When cloudy was the weather, I met a little old man Clothed all in leather, Clothed all in leather, With cap below his chin. How do you do, and how do you do, And how do you do again? As 5. SI was going to Derby all on a market-day, I met the finest ram, sir, that ever was fed upon hay; I met the finest ram, sir, that ever was fed upon hay. This ram was fat behind, sir; this ram was fat before; This ram was ten yards round, sir; indeed he was no more. The horns that grew on his head, sir, they were so wondrous high, As I've been plainly told, sir, they reach'd up to the sky; The sky, the sky, the sky; As I've been plainly told, sir, they reach'd up to the sky. The tail that grew on his back, sir, was six yards and an ell; The bell, the bell, the bell; And it was sent to Derby to toll the market-bell. 3 |
