Mother Goose: Little Fred

The Real Mother Goose 路 2 min read

Sleep, Baby, Sleep

When little Fred went to bed,
He always said his prayers;
He kissed mamma, and then papa,
And straightway went upstairs.

Little Fred

Cry, Baby

Cry, baby, cry,
Put your finger in your eye,
And tell your mother it wasn't I.

Baa, Baa, Black Sheep

Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes, marry, have I,
Three bags full;
One for my master,
One for my dame,
But none for the little boy
Who cries in the lane.

Baa, Baa, Black Sheep

The Cat And The Fiddle

Hey, diddle, diddle!
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed
To see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

The Cat and the Fiddle

Doctor Fell

I do not like thee, Doctor Fell;
The reason why I cannot tell;
But this I know, and know full well,
I do not like thee, Doctor Fell!

A Counting-Out Rhyme

Hickery, dickery, 6 and 7,
Alabone, Crackabone, 10 and 11,
Spin, spun, muskidun,
Twiddle 'em, twaddle 'em, 21.

Jack And His Fiddle

"Jacky, come and give me thy fiddle,
If ever thou mean to thrive."
"Nay, I'll not give my fiddle
To any man alive.
"If I should give my fiddle,
They'll think that I've gone mad;
For many a joyous day
My fiddle and I have had."

Jack and his Fiddle

Buttons

Buttons, a farthing a pair!
Come, who will buy them of me?
They're round and sound and pretty,
And fit for girls of the city.
Come, who will buy them of me?
Buttons, a farthing a pair!
