Bobby Shaftoe's gone to sea,
Silver buckles on his knee;

Pretty Bobby Shaftoe.

Taffy was a Welchman. Taffy was a thief,
Taffy came to my house and stole a piece of beef;
I went to T'affy's house, Taffy wan't at home,

I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was in bed,
I took the marrow-bone, and beat about his head.

To see what Tommy can buy ;

It trots behind and it ambles before,
And Johnny shall ride till he can ride no more.

Jemmy Jed went into a shed,
And made of a ted of straw his bed ;
An owl came out and flew about,
And Jemmy Jed up stakes and fled.
Wan't Jemmy Jed a staring fool,
Born in the wouds to be scar'd by an owl?

How many miles to Babylon ?
Threescore miles and ten.
Can I get there by candle-light?
Yes, and back again.
