Mother Goose: The Man in Our Town

Ride a Cock-Horse to Banbury Cross

There was a man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise,
He jumped into a bramble bush,
And scratched out both his eyes;
But when he saw his eyes were out,
With all his might and main,
He jumped into another bush,
And scratched 'em in again.

The Man in Our Town

Georgy Porgy

Georgy Porgy, pudding and pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry.
When the boys came out to play,
Georgy Porgy ran away.

Georgy Porgy

For Every Evil

For every evil under the sun
There is a remedy or there is none.
If there be one, seek till you find it;
If there be none, never mind it.

Cushy Cow

Cushy cow, bonny, let down thy milk,
And I will give thee a gown of silk;
A gown of silk and a silver tee,
If thou wilt let down thy milk to me.

Wee Willie Winkie

Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,
Upstairs and downstairs, in his nightgown;
Rapping at the window, crying through the lock,
"Are the children in their beds? Now it's eight o'clock."

About The Bush

About the bush, Willie,
About the beehive,
About the bush, Willie,
I'll meet thee alive.

See-Saw

See-saw, Margery Daw,
Sold her bed and lay upon straw.

Robin-A-Bobbin

Robin-a-Bobbin
Bent his bow,
Shot at a pigeon,
And killed a crow.
