Simple Simon

Simple Simon met a pie man going to the fair

Said Simple Simon to the pie man let me taste your ware

Said the pie man unto Simple Simon, 'Show me first your penny'

Said Simple Simon to the pie man, 'Sir I have'nt any'

 

Simple Simon went a-fishing for to catch a whale

But all the water he had got was in his mother’s pail

Simple Simon went to look if plums grew on a thistle

He pricked his finger in the leaves which made poor Simon whistle



Sing A Song Of Sixpence

Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye

Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie

When the pie was open, the birds began to sing

Wasn't it a dainty dish to set before a king

The Queen was in the parlour, eating bread and honey

The maid was in the garden, hanging out her clothes

When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose

I'll find another one, better than you

I'll find another one, better than you

Skip to my Lou, my darlin'

Six Little Mice

Six little mice sat down to spin
Pussy passed by and she peeped in
What are you doing, my little men?
Weaving coats for gentlemen
Shall I come in and cut off your threads?
Oh, no, Mistress Pussy, you’d bite off our heads
No, no, I’ll not, I’ll help you spin
That may be so, but you can't come in

Star Light Star Bright

Star light, star bright

First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight

Teddy Bear Teddy Bear

Teddy bear, teddy bear, turn around

Teddy bear, teddy bear, touch the ground

Teddy bear, teddy bear, shine your shoes

Teddy bear, teddy bear, that will do



Teddy bear, teddy bear, climb the stairs

Teddy bear, teddy bear, say your prayers

Teddy bear, teddy bear, turn out the light

Teddy bear, teddy bear, say goodnight


The Ants Go Marching

The ants go marching one by one, hoorah, hoorah

The ants go marching one by one, hoorah, hoorah

The little one stopped to suck his thumb

And they all went marching for to get out of the rain


The ants go marching two by two, hoorah, hoorah

The ants go marching two by two, hoorah, hoorah

The little one stopped to say "good-bye"

Was all that he could see!

The Grand Old Duke Of York

Oh the grand old Duke of York

He had ten thousand men

He marched them up to the top of the hill

And he marched them down again

And when they were up, they were up

And when they were down, they were down

And when they were only half way up

They were neither up nor down


Oh the grand old Duke of York

He had ten thousand men

They played their pipes to the top of the hilll

And they played them down again

And when they were up, they were up

And when they were down, they were down

And when they were only half way up

They were neither up nor down


Oh the grand old Duke of York

He had ten thousand men

They banged their drums to the top of the hilll

And they banged them down again

And when they were up, they were up

And when they were down, they were down

And when they were only half way up

They were neither up nor down

The North Wind Doth Blow

The north wind doth blow
And we shall have snow
And what will poor robin do then? 
Poor thing 

He'll sit in a barn
And keep h
imself warm
And hide his head under his wing
Poor thing

The Queen Of Hearts

The Queen of Hearts

She made some tarts

All on a summer’s day

The Knave of Hearts

He stole the tarts

And took them clean away

The Wheels On The Bus

The wheels on the bus go round and round

Round and round, round and round

The wheels on the bus go round and round

All day long


The horn on the bus goes beep beep beep 

Beep beep beep, beep beep beep

The horn on the bus goes beep beep beep

All day long


The windscreen wipers go swish swish swish

Swish swish swish, swish swish swish

The windscreen wipers go swish swish swish

All day long


The people on the bus bounce up and down

Up and down, up and down

The people on the bus bounce up and down

All day long


The daddies on the bus go nod nod nod

Nod nod nod, nod nod nod

The daddies on the bus go nod nod nod

All day long


The mummies on the bus go chatter chatter chatter

Chatter chatter chatter, chatter chatter chatter

The mummies on the bus go chatter chatter chatter

All day long


There Was A Crooked Man

There was a crooked man,

who walked a crooked mile

And found a crooked sixpence,

upon a crooked style

He bought a crooked cat,

which caught a crooked mouse

And they all lived together,

in a little crooked house

There Was A Old Woman

There was an old woman tossed up in a basket

Seventeen times as high as the moon

And where she was going, I couldn’t but ask it

For in her hand she carried a broom

Old woman, old woman, old woman, quoth I

O whither, O whither, O whither so high?

To sweep the cobwebs off the sky

Shall I go with you? Aye, by-and-by



(spoken rhyme)

This Is The Way The Ladies Ride

This is the way the ladies ride

Nimble-nim, nimble-nim


This is the way the gentlemen ride

Gallop-a-trot, gallop-a-trot


This is the way the farmers ride

Jiggledy-jog, jiggley-jog



This Little Pig

This little pig went to market

This little pig stayed at home

This little pig had roast beef

This little pig had none

And this little pig cried wee, wee, wee

All the way home

Three Blind Mice

Three blind mice, three blind mice

See how they run, see how they run

They all ran after the farmer’s wife

Who cut off their tails with a carving knife

Did you ever see such a thing in your life

As three blind mice

Three Little Ghostesses

Three little hostesses

Sitting on postesses

Eating buttered toastesses

Greasing their fistesses

Up to their wristesses

Oh, what beastesses

To make such reassesses


(spoken rhyme)

Three Little Kittens

Three little kittens

They lost their mittens

And they began to cry

Oh, mother dear

We sadly fear

Our mittens we have lost

What! Lost you mittens

You naughty kittens

Then you shall have no pie

Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow

No, you shall have no pie

Tom, he was a piper's son

He learnt to play when he was young

And all the tune that he could play

Was over the hills and far away

The pig was eat and Tom was beat

And Tom went howling down the street



Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

Up above the world so high

Like a diamond in the sky

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

When he nothing shines upon

Then you show your little light

Twinkle, twinkle, through the night

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

Two little dickie birds, sitting on a wall

One named Peter, one named Paul

Fly away Peter, fly away Paul

Come back Peter, come back Paul
