    I won't be my father's Jack,
      I won't be my father's Jill,
    I will be the fiddler's wife,
      And have music when I will.
T'other little tune, t'other little tune,
Prythee, love, play me t'other little tune.

How shall we build it up again?

  Dance over my Lady Lee,
We'll build it up with gravel and stone,

Gravel and stone will be washed away,
  Dance over my Lady Lee,
Gravel and stone will be washed away,
  With a gay ladye.

Silver and gold will be stolen away,
  With a gay ladye.

  With a gay ladye.

Suppose the man should fall asleep,

Suppose the man should fall asleep,
  With a gay ladye.

Tom, Tom, the piper's son,
Stole a pig, and away he run;
  The pig was eat,
  And Tom was beat,
And Tom ran crying down the street.

  Little king Boggen he built a fine hall,
  Pie-crust and pastry-crust, that was the wall;
The windows were made of black-puddings and white,
And slated with pancakes—you ne'er saw the like.

To bed, to bed, says Sleepy-Head;
  Let's stay a while, says Slow;
Put on a pot, says Greedy-Sot,
  We'll sup before we go.

Dingty diddledy, my mammy's maid,
She stole oranges, I am afraid:
Some in her pocket, some in her sleeve,
She stole oranges, I do believe.

Ride away, ride away,
  Johnny shall ride,
And he shall have pussy-cat
  Tied to one side;
And he shall have little dog
  Tied to the other,
And Johnny shall ride
  To see his grandmother.

Hush-a-bye, baby, lie still with thy daddy,
  Thy mammy is gone to the mill,
To get some meal to bake a cake;
  So pray, my dear baby, lie still.

      Little lad, little lad,
      Where were you born?
Far off in Lancashire, under a thorn,
    Where they sup butter-milk
      With a ram's horn;
    And a pumpkin scoop'd,
      With a yellow rim,
Is the bonny bowl they breakfast in.

         Pretty John Watts,
         We are troubled with rats,
Will you drive them out of the house?
  We have mice too in plenty,
  That feast in the pantry,
But let them stay and nibble away,
What harm in a little brown mouse?

Shake a leg, wag a leg, when will you gang?
At midsummer, mother, when the days are lang.

See saw, sacradown, sacradown,
Which is the way to Boston town?
One foot up, the other foot down,
That is the way to Boston town.

Tom Brown's two little Indian boys,
    One ran away,
    The other would n't stay,
Tom Brown's two little Indian boys.

Hop away, skip away, my baby wants to play.
My baby wants to play every day.

Bow, wow, wow, whose dog art thou?
Little Tom Tinker's dog, bow, wow, wow.

Bobby Shaftoe's gone to sea,
Silver buckles on his knee;
He'll come back and marry me,
         Pretty Bobby Shaftoe.

Bobby Shaftoe's fat and fair,
Combing down his yellow hair,
He's my love forevermore,
         Pretty Bobby Shaftoe.

Pussy cat, pussy cat, where have you been?
I've been to London to see the Queen.
Pussy cat, pussy cat, what did you there?
I frightened a little mouse under the chair.

Taffy was a Welchman, Taffy was a thief,
Taffy came to my house and stole a piece of beef;
I went to Taffy's house, Taffy wasn't at home,
Taffy came to my house and stole a marrow-bone;
I went to Taffy's house, Taffy was in bed,
I took the marrow-bone, and beat about his head.

Boys and girls, come out to play,
The moon does shine as bright as day,
  Leave your supper, and leave your sleep,
  And meet your playfellows in 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 halfpenny roll will serve us all.
You find milk and I'll find flour,
And we'll have pudding in half an hour.

Ride a cock horse to Banbury-cross
  To see what Tommy can buy;
A penny white loaf, a penny white cake,
  And a two penny apple pie.

Ride a cock hose to Shrewsbury-cross,
To buy little Johnny a galloping horse
It trots behind and it ambles before,
And Johnny shall ride till he can ride no more.

Jemmy Jed went into a shed,
And made a ted of straw his bed;
An owl came out and flew about,
And Jimmy Jed up stakes and fled.
Wasn't Jimmy Jed a staring fool,
Born in the woods to be scar'd by an owl?

How many miles to Babylon?
Threescore miles and ten.
Can I get there by candle-light?
Yes, and back again.

Oh I am so happy,
A little girl said,
As she sprang like a lark
From her low trundle bed.
It is morning, bright morning,
         Good morning, Papa!
Oh give me one kiss,
         For good morning, Mamma!

        Trip upon trenchers,
        And dance upon dishes,
My mother sent me for yeast, some yeast,
        She bid me tread lightly,
        And come again quickly,
For fear the young men would play me some jest.

        Yet didn't you see, yet didn't
