LIT

Fell sick upon a time;

In came Robin Redbreast,

And brought her cake and wine.

Eat of my cake, Jenny,

And drink of my wine;

Thank you, Robin, kindly,

You shall be mine.

Jenny, she got well,

And stood upon her feet, And told Robin plainly,

She loved him not a bit.

Robin he was angry,

And hopp'd upon a twig;

Saying, Out upon you, fy upon you, Bold-faced jig!

SING song! merry go round,

Here we go up to the moon, oh!
Little Johnnie a penny has found,
And so we'll sing a tune, oh!
What shall I buy,

Johnnie did cry,

With the penny

penny I've found,

So bright and round?

What shall you buy?

A kite that will fly

Up to the moon, all through the sky!

But if, when it gets there,

It should stay in the air;

Or the man in the moon

Should open his door,

And take it in with his long, long paw;We should sing to another tune, oh!

32.

To market, to market,

To buy a plum bun:

Home again, home again,
Market is done.

JOHN COOK had a little gray mare;

he, haw, hum;

Her back stood up, and her bones they were bare; he, haw, hum.

John Cook was riding up Shooter's bank he, haw, hum.

And there his nag did kick and prank; he, haw, hum.

John Cook was riding up Shooter's hill; he, haw, hum;

His mare fell down, and she made her will; he, haw, hum.

The bridle and saddle were laid on the shelf;

he, haw, hum;

If you want any more, you may sing it yourself; he, haw, hum.

WILLY boy, Willy boy, where are you going?

I will go with you, if that I may.

I'm going to the meadow to see them a mowing, I'm going to help them to make the hay.

36.

WHEN I was a little boy

I lived by myself;

And all the bread and cheese I got
I put upon the shelf.

The rats and the mice

They made such a strife,

I was forced to go to London-town

To buy me a wife.

The streets were so broad,

And the lanes were so narrow,

I was forced to bring my wife home

In a wheel-barrow.

The wheel-barrow broke,

And my wife had a fall;
Down came wheel-barrow,
Wife and all.
