  Five currant buns

 FIVE currant buns in a baker‛s shop

Round and fat with a cherry on top

Along came a boy, with a penny one day

Bought a currant bun and took it right away

 

 Pat a Cake Pat a Cake

Pat a cake, Pat a cake, baker’s man

Bake me a cake as fast as you can;

Pat it and prick it and mark it with a ‘B’,

And put it in the oven for Baby and me.

 

 Old King Cole

Old King Cole was a merry old soul,

And a merry old soul was he,

He called for his pipe and he called for his bowl,

And he called for his fiddlers three.

 

 Polly Put the Kettle On

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.

 

 Round and Round the Garden

Round and Round the garden

Like a teddy bear,

One step, two step ,

Tickly under there!

 

 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 playfellows in the street.

 

 London Bridge is Falling Down

London Bridge is falling down,

Falling down, falling down,

London Bridge is falling down,

My fair Lady.

Build it up with wood and clay,

Wood and clay, wood and clay,

Build it up with wood and clay,

My fair Lady.

 

Build it up with bricks and mortar,

Bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar,

Build it up with bricks and mortar,

My fair Lady.

 

Build it up with iron and steel,

Iron and steel, iron and steel,

Build it up with iron and steel,

My fair Lady.

 

 Mary had a Little Lamb

Mary had a little lamb its fleece was white as snow;

And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.

It followed her to school one day, which was against the rule;

It made the children laugh and play, to see a lamb at school.

And so the teacher turned it out, but still it lingered near,

And waited patiently about till Mary did appear.

“Why does the lamb love Mary so?” the eager children cry;

“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know” the teacher did reply.

 

 Five Little Speckled Frogs

FIVE little speckled frogs,

Sat on a speckled log,

Eating some most delicious bugs – yum, yum!

One jumped into the pool,

Where it was nice and cool,

Then there were FOUR speckled frogs – glug, glug!

 

 Two Little Dicky Birds

Two Little Dicky Birds sitting on a wall,

One named Peter, the other named Paul,

Fly away Peter! Fly away Paul!

Come back, Peter! Come back, Paul!

 

One, Two, Three, Four, Five

One, two, three, four, five

Once I caught a fish alive,

Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,

Then I let it go again.

 

Why did you let it go,

Because it bit my finger so,

Which finger did it bite,

This little finger on my right.

 

One, Two, Buckle My Shoes

One, two buckle my shoe,

Three, four, knock at the door,

Five, six, pick up sticks

Seven, eight, lay them straight

Nine, ten, a big fat hen

Eleven, twelve, dig and delve

Thirteen, fourteen, maids a-courting

Fifteen, sixteen, maids in the kitchen

Seventeen, eighteen, maids in waiting

Nineteen, twenty, my plate’s empty

 

Baa, Baa, Black Sheep

Baa, baa, black sheep have you any wool?

Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full,

One for the master and one for my dame,

And one for the little boy who lives down the lane.

 

When Goldilocks went to the House of the Bears

When Goldilocks went to the house of the bears,

Oh what did her two eyes see?

A bowl that was huge,

A bowl that was small,

A bowl that was tiny and that was all,

She counted them: one, two, three.

 

When Goldilocks went to the house of the bears,

Oh what did her two eyes see?

A chair that was huge,

A chair that was small,

A chair that was tiny and that was all,

She counted them: one, two, three.

 

When Goldilocks went to the house of the bears,

Oh what did her two eyes see?

A bed that was huge,

A bed that was small,

A bed that was tiny and that was all,

She counted them: one, two, three.

 

When Goldilocks ran from the house of the bears,

Oh what did her two eyes see?

A bear that was huge,

A bear that was small,

A bear that was tiny and that was all,

They growled at her: grr, grr, grr!

 

 I’m a Little Teapot

I’m a little teapot, short and stout,

Hers’s my handle; here’s my spout,

When I get the steam up, hear me shout,

Tip me up and pour me out.

 

 Three Blind Mice

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 see such a thing in your life,

As three blind mice?

 

 Hickory, Dickory, Dock

Hickory, dickory, dock

The mouse ran up the clock,

The clock struck one,

The mouse ran down,

Hickory, dickory, dock.

 

 Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

All the King’s horses, And all the King’s men

Couldn’t put Humpty together again!

 

Humpty Dumpty sat on the ground,

Humpty Dumpty looked all around,

Gone were the chimneys and gone were the roofs,

All he could see was horses and hooves.
