A Pocketful of Peas
A pocketful of peas,
Four and twenty blackbirds
Sitting in the trees
At the king and queen,
Telling all the other birds
Everything they've seen.
Counting up his money,
The queen is on the sofa
Eating bread and honey.”
Hanging out the clothes,
When along comes a blackbird
And gives her a rose!
Polly Get the Candles Lit
Polly, get the candles lit!
Polly, get the candles lit
For the birthday tea!
Sukey, blow them out again!
Sukey, blow them out again!
We’ll all have cake!
Over the Hills and Far Away
He learnt to play when he was young,
But the only tune that he would play
Was “Over the Hills and Far Away”
Oh Jenny was the piper’s daughter.
She learnt the tunes her daddy taught her,
But the tune she really loved to play
Was “Over the Hills and Far Away”
Over the hills and a long way off!
The wind shall blow my top-knot off!
Three Fit Mice
Three fit mice!
Three fit mice!
See how they run!
See how they run!
They ran round the field
In the egg and spoon race
One of them got
Egg all over his face
Did ever you see
Such a thing in your life
As three fit mice?
Ride a Toy Horse
Ride a toy horse to Banbury Cross
To see a fine lady ride on a white horse.
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
She shall have music wherever she goes.
Little Molly Willows
Sat among the pillows
Picking her pretty little nose.
Her mummy came and caught her
And begged her little daughter
Not to put the bogeys on her clothes.
They Lived in a Shoe
Who lived in a shoe
With lots of kids
And a kitty-cat too.
She gave them some apples,
Some cheese, milk and bread,
Then read them a story
And put them to bed.
