ᄏᄏᄏ Three wise men of Gotham Went to sea in a bowl And if the bowl had been stronger My song had been longer. Wash me and comb me And lay me down softly, And set me on a bank to dry, That I may look pretty, When some one comes by. green Up in the And Reuben and Robin shall gather them all. Harry cum Parry, when will you marry When apples and pears are ripe. I'll come to your wedding without any bidding, And stay with the bride all night. Jog on, jog on, the footpath way, I will sing you a song Of the days that are long, Of the woodcock and the sparrow, Of the little dog that burnt his tail, And he shall be whipt to-morrow. I had a little Doll, The prettiest ever seen, She washed me the dishes, And kept the house clean. She went to the mill To fetch me some flour, And always got it home In less than an hour; She baked me my bread, She brewed me my ale, She sat by the fire And told many a fine tale. When I was a little he, My mother took me on her knee, Smiles and kisses gave with joy, And call'd me oft her darling boy. F |
