But when he got tired of this kind of life, THE cat sat asleep by the side of the fire, To market, to market, to buy a fat pig, A CAT came fiddling out of a barn, We'll have a wedding at our good house. THERE were two birds sat on a stone, One flew away, and then there was one, Fa, la, la, la, lal, de; Fa, la, la, la, lal, de; And so the poor stone was left all alone, Fa, la, la, la, lal, de! THE little black dog ran round the house, And set the bull a roaring, And drove the monkey in the boat, Who set the oars a rowing, And scared the cock upon the rock, Who cracked his throat with crowing. LITTLE Tom Tucker How will he be married THE Quaker's wife got up to bake, Her children all about her, She gave them every one a cage, And the miller wants his moulter. SING, sing, what shall I sing? The cat has bitten it quite in two. WHEN the wind is in the east, It blows the bait in the fishes' mouth; Then 'tis at the very best. |
