I saw an old man put shells in his pocket,
And up to the sky he went like a rocket, What he did there I could not but wonder, While I looked I thought I heard thunder.
"Old fellow,old fellow,old fellow,"cried I,
"Oh whither,oh wither,oh wither so high,?
"The moon is green cheese,which I go to bring,"One half is for you,the rest for the king!"

Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep;
And if I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord,my soul to take.

Peter,Peter,pumpkin eater,
Had a wife and could'nt keep her,
He put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.
Peter,Peter,pumpkin eater,
Had another,and did'nt love her;
Peter learned to read and spell,
And then he loved her very well.

Wee Willie Winkie runs through town
Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown;
Rapping at the window,crying through the lock,\
"Are the children in their beds?"
Now it's eight o`clock.

Lucy Locket lost her pocket,
Kitty Fisher found it,
Not a penny was there in it,
Only ribbon round it.

I love little kitty,
Her coat is so warm,
And if I don't hurt her
She'll do me no harm.
So I'll not pull her tail,
Nor drive her away,
But kitty and I
Very gently will

Goosey,goosey gander,
Whiter shall I wonder?
Upstairs and downsstairs
And in my lady's chamber.
There I met an old man
Who would not say his prayers.
I took him by the leg
And threw him down the stairs.

I am Rose,my eyes are blue,
I am Rose,and who are you?
I am Rose,and when I sing,
I am Rose like anything,
I am Rose my eyes are blue,
I am Rose and who are you?
I am Rose,and when I sing,
I am Rose like anything.
