PUSSY CAT, PUSSY CAT, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
[Music]
"Pussy cat, pussy cat, where have you been?"
"I've been to London to see the new Queen."
"Pussy cat, pussy cat, what did you there?"
"I caught a little mouse under her chair."
[Illustration]
MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB.
[Music]
Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow,
And ev'rywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.
He followed her to school one day,
That was against the rule.
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school.
2. So the Teacher turned him out
But still he lingered near,
And waited patiently about
Till Mary did appear;
And then he ran to her and laid
His head upon her arm
As if he said "I'm not afraid,
You'll keep me from all harm."
3. "What makes the lamb love Mary so?"
The eager children cry,
"O, Mary loves the lamb you know,"
The Teacher did reply;
"And you each gentle animal
In confidence may bind,
And make them follow at your call
If you are always kind."
[Illustration]
SING A SONG OF SIXPENCE.
[Music]
Sing a song of Sixpence
A pocket full of rye;
Four and twenty Blackbirds
Baked in a pie;
When the pie was open'd
The birds began to sing,
Oh, was not that a dainty dish
To set before the King.
2. The King was in his counting-house
Counting out his money,
The Queen was in the parlour
Eating bread and honey;
The Maid was in the garden
Hanging out the clothes,
There came a little blackbird
And pecked off her nose.
[Illustration]
LITTLE JACK HORNER.
[Music]
Little Jack Horner
Sat in a corner
Eating his Christmas pie;
He put in his Thumb
And pulled out a plum
And said "What a good boy am I!"
[Illustration]
DING DONG BELL.
[Music]
Ding dong bell!
Pussy's in the well!
Who put her in?
Little Tommy Green.
Who pulled her out?
Little Tommy Stout.
What a naughty boy was that
To drown poor pussycat,
Who ne'er did any harm,
But killed all the mice in father's barn.
[Illustration]
THREE BLIND MICE.
[Music]
Three blind mice, see how they run!
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever hear such a tale in your life,
As three blind mice!
[Illustration]
THE MULBERRY BUSH.
[Music]
Here we go round the Mulberry bush,

This is the way we wash our hands
On a cold and frosty morning.

"clap our hands"
"warm our hands"

THE THREE LITTLE KITTENS.

1. Three little kittens they lost their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh, mammy dear!
We sadly fear,
Our mittens we have lost."
"What! lost your mittens, you naughty kittens,
Then you shall have no pie."
Miew, miew, miew, miew.
2. Three little kittens they found their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh, mammy dear!
See here, see here!
Our mittens we have found."
"What! Found your mittens, you little kittens,
Then you shall have some pie."
Purr, purr, purr, rr-rr.
3. The three little kittens put on their mittens
And soon ate up the pie,
"Oh, mammy dear!
We greatly fear,
Our mittens we have soiled."
"What! soiled your mittens, you naughty kittens,"
Then they began to sigh,
Miew, miew, miew, miew,
Miew, miew, miew.
4. The three little kittens they washed their mittens,
And hung them up to dry.
"Oh, mammy dear!
Look here, look here!
Our mittens we have washed."
"What! washed your mittens, you darling kittens,
But I smell a rat close by.
Hush, hush! miew, miew,
Miew, miew, miew."

PAT-A-CAKE.

Prick it and nick it and mark it with T
And there will be plenty for baby and me
For baby and me
For baby and me
And there will be plenty for baby and me.
[Illustration]

How does your garden grow?"

And pretty maids all in a row."

Except the binding round it.

I LOVE LITTLE PUSSY.
[Music]
1. I love little pussy,
Her coat is so warm
And if I don't hurt her,
She'll do me no harm.
2. So I'll not pull her tail,
Or drive her away;
But Pussy and I
Together will play.
3. She will sit by my side
And I'll give her some food;
And she'll like me because
I'm gentle and good.
[Illustration]
BAA! BAA! BLACK SHEEP.
[Music]
"Baa! Baa! Black sheep,
Have you any wool?"
"Yes, marry have I,
Three bags full;
One for my master,
And one for my dame,
But none for the little boy
That cries in the lane!"
[Illustration]

Oh where, oh where can he be?
With his ears cut short and his tail cut long
Oh where, oh where is he?

The man in brown
Soon brought him down,
Dickory, dickory, dare.

GIRLS AND BOYS COME OUT TO PLAY.
[Music]
Girls and boys come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day
Leave your supper and leave your sleep
And join your play-fellows down the street.
Come with a whoop and come with a call
And come with a good-will or not at all
Up the ladder and down the wall
A half penny loaf will serve us all.
[Illustration]
JACK AND JILL.

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water;
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.

YANKEE-DOODLE.
[Music]
1. Yankee doodle came to town,
Upon a little pony,
He stuck a feather in his cap
And called it macaroni.
Yankee doodle, doodle do,
Yankee doodle dandy;
All the lassies are so smart,
And sweet as sugar candy.
2. Marching in and marching out,
And marching round the town, O!
Here there comes a regiment
With Captain Thomas Brown, O!
Yankee doodle, &c.
3. Yankee doodle is a tune
That comes in mighty handy;
The enemy all runs away
At Yankee doodle dandy.
Yankee doodle &c.
[Illustration]
TWINKLE, TWINKLE, LITTLE STAR.
[Music]
1. Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are:
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
When the blazing sun is gone
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
2. Then the traveller in the dark
Thanks you for your little spark,
He could not see which way to go
If you did not twinkle so.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye
Till the sun is in the sky.
[Illustration]
LITTLE BO-PEEP.
[Music]
Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep,
And can't tell where to find them:
Leave them alone, and they'll come home
And bring their tails behind them.
2. Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep
And dreamt she heard them bleating.
But when she awoke, she found it a joke.
For they were still a-fleeting.
3. She took up her crook, intending to look,
Determined for to find them;
She found them indeed, but it made her heart bleed
For they'd left their tails behind them.
4. She heaved a sigh, and wiped her eye
And ran over hill and dale, O!
And tried what she could, as a shepherdess should,
To tack to each sheep its tail, O!
[Illustration]
ORANGES AND LEMONS.
[Music]
"Oranges and lemons," say the bells of St. Clements;
"You owe me five farthings," say the bells of St. Martins;
"When will you pay me?" say the bells of Old Bailey;
"When I grow rich," say the bells of Shoreditch;
"When will that be?" say the bells of Stepney;
"I do not know," says the great bell of Bow;
Here comes a candle to light you to bed,
And here comes a chopper to chop off your head!
[Illustration]
RIDE A COCK-HORSE.
[Music]
Ride a Cock-horse
To Banbury Cross,
To see a fine lady ride on a white horse;
With rings on her fingers
And bells on her toes
So she shall have music
Wherever she goes.
[Illustration]
WHAT ARE LITTLE BOYS MADE OF?
[Music]
1. What are little boys made of, made of?
What are little boys made of?
Frogs and snails and puppy dog's tails,
And such are little boys made of.
Chorus.
Frogs and snails and puppy dog's tails,
And such are little boys made of.
2. What are little girls made of, made of?
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice and all things nice,
And such are little girls made of;
Sugar and spice and all things nice,
And such are little girls made of.
3. What are our young men made of, made of?
What are our young men made of?
Sighs and leers, and crocodile tears,
And such are our young men made of;
Sighs and leers, and crocodile tears,
And such are our young men made of.
4. What are young women made of, made of?
What are young women made of?
Ribbons and laces, and sweet pretty faces,
And such are young women made of;
Ribbons and laces, and sweet pretty faces,
And such are young women made of.
[Illustration]
THERE WAS A LITTLE MAN.
[Music]
1. There was a little man,
And he wooed a little maid,
And he said "Little maid! will you wed, wed, wed?
I have little more to say,
Then will you? yea, or nay!
For least said is soonest mended, ded, ded, ded!"
2. The little maid replied,
(Some say a little sighed)
But what shall we have to eat, eat, eat?
Will the love that you're so rich in,
Put a fire into the kitchen?
Or the little God of Love turn the spit, spit, spit.
3. The little man replied,
(Some say a little cried,)
For his little heart was filled with sorrow, row;
With the little that I have,
I will be your little slave,
And the rest my little dear we will borrow, row.
4. Thus did the little gent,
Make the little maid relent,
For her little heart began to beat, beat, beat;
Through his offers were but small,
She accepted of them all,
Now she thanks her little stars for her fate, fate, fate.
[Illustration]
LITTLE BOY BLUE.
[Music]
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn,
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn.
Where's the boy that looks after the sheep?
He's under the haycock fast asleep.
Will you wake him? No, not I!
For if I do, he'll be sure to cry.
[Illustration]
POLLY PUT THE KETTLE ON.
[Music]
Polly put the kettle on,
Polly put the kettle on,
Polly put the kettle on,
We'll all have tea.
Sukey take it off again,
Sukey take it off again,
Sukey take it off again,
They've all gone away.
[Illustration]
HUSH-A-BY BABY.
[Music]
Hush-a-by Baby on the tree-top,
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock;
When the bough breaks
The cradle will fall;
Down comes baby, cradle and all!

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.
Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org
This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
